FAQs

What is the maximum current this cable can handle?

The cable itself does not limit the current. The total current draw is determined by the connected pedals and the power supply's output.

Can I use this cable with any power supply?

The cable is compatible with most standard 2.1mm center negative barrel connector power supplies. Make sure your power supply provides the required voltage and current for your pedals.

Is this cable polarity specific?

Yes, this cable is designed for pedals using a center-negative polarity. Using it with a center-positive pedal could damage the pedal.

What if one of my pedals requires more current than the other?

The power supply should be able to supply the total current demanded by both pedals. Make sure your power supply meets or exceeds the combined current draw of both effects.

How do I know if my power supply is compatible?

Check the power supply's specifications to ensure it uses a 2.1mm center negative barrel connector. The voltage should match your pedals' requirements.

Can I chain more than two pedals together?

This specific cable allows for two pedals. If you require more, you might need a power supply with multiple outputs or additional daisy chain cables.

What is the benefit of the 90-degree contact?

The 90-degree angled connector helps to conserve space and reduce cable clutter on your pedalboard, allowing for tidier cable management.

Troubleshooting

Pedals are not powering on.

Check the power supply connection and ensure it is providing the correct voltage and sufficient current. Verify the cable connections to both pedals.

One or both pedals are producing a buzzing sound.

This could indicate a ground loop. Try a power supply that isolates the outputs or a different power outlet.

The cable seems to have a loose connection.

Make sure all the connectors are fully inserted and securely fastened. If the issue persists, the cable may need to be replaced.

Pros and Cons

  • Simplifies your setup, making it easier to manage your effects pedals.
  • The 90-degree angled connector aids in cable management.
  • Designed for an ultra-flat profile that minimizes the footprint.

Cons

  • Limited to powering two pedals per cable.
  • Requires a compatible power supply with sufficient current output for connected pedals.
  • Specific to pedals that use a standard barrel-type DC power connection.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

  1. Connecting Pedals: Plug the DC Power Split Cable into the power input of your first effect pedal. Then, connect the second pedal to the other end of the cable.
  2. Connecting to Power Supply: Plug the 2.1mm center negative barrel connector into a compatible power supply outlet. Ensure the power supply provides sufficient current for both pedals.
  3. Compatibility: The EBS DC Power Split Cable is compatible with the EBS DC-290F power supplies and other power supplies that use the 2.1mm center negative barrel connector.
  4. Care: Avoid excessive bending of the cable to prevent damage. When storing, wind the cable neatly to avoid kinks. Always ensure the power supply matches the voltage requirements of your pedals.
