Is there a Y splitter cable that will separate the power from the data signal?

I've never heard of one, but I never thought to look for one. Just for my education - why is that needed?
Thanks, Mark

iPhone data output to DAC and USB power input to iPhone. Interesting...never considered that. One way I am thinking of it is that I used to run USB out of my PC into my DAC, and that USB port provides power to my phone if I connect it. So, isn't it sending current to my DAC also as it send data? Or, is the DAC and USB out smart enough to know it shouldn't send both? Not sure... Mark |

www.apple.com/shop/product/MK0W2AM/A/lightning-to-usb-3-camera-adapterI think this might work. The USB port is intended for data and the Lightning port for power. It provides power to both the USB port and the Lightning plug. Perfect! I’ll insert the adapter Lightning plug into the iPhone, my AudioEngine D3 into the adapter USB port, and plug a Lightning charger into the adapter Lightning port. I plan on running Amazon Music HD on WiFi to the iPhone and connect the D3 to active speakers. www.apple.com/shop/product/MK0W2AM/A/lightning-to-usb-3-camera-adapter13.3" MacBook Air, 4GB RAM, 256GB SSD, iTunes/BitPerfect MacBook Air SuperDrive Western Digital My Book Essential 2TB USB HD Schiit Bifrost USB DAC and Audioengine D3 DAC Emotiva USP-1, ERC-1 and two UPA-1s Pro-Ject Xpression III and AT440MLa AKAI AT-2600 and Harman Kardon TD4400 Grado SR80i Wharfedale Diamond 225 Magnestand MMG Rythmik Audio F12

The adapter also works well to add a USB keyboard. |
