Mission Cables Y Splitter Power Cable for Apple TV

Power your Apple TV straight from your television using the Mission Y Splitter Power Cable for a cleaner, outlet-free installation. Keep your entertainment area tidy and easy to manage: this splitter cable transfers power from any TV with a C8-style mains inlet to your Apple TV, removing the need for a separate AC outlet or an extra visible adapter. It’s a compact, plug-and-play solution for wall-mounted setups, tight media cabinets, and living rooms where reducing cable clutter matters.

How does the Mission Y cable simplify a wall-mounted Apple TV setup?

Instead of running a second power cord to an outlet behind or below your display, the Mission Y splitter uses the TV’s own C8 power port to also feed your Apple TV. That makes installations neater and cuts the visible wiring that typically spoils a wall-mounted look.

• Plugs into the TV’s C8-style inlet and provides a second lead for Apple TV power.
• Reduces cable length and visible adaptors behind wall-mounted TVs.
• Ideal for hiding components inside slim AV cabinets or recessed installations.

Will this cable work with my TV and which Apple TVs are supported?

The Mission Y splitter is built to be compatible with TVs that use a C8-style power connector—commonly found on many Samsung, Vizio, Sharp, LG, Hisense, and Insignia models. It’s designed to work with all generations of Apple TV, providing a universal power-routing option without model-specific adapters.

• Compatible with most TVs featuring a C8 (figure-eight) mains inlet.
• Supports all Apple TV generations for straightforward power sharing.
• Check your TV’s power socket shape to confirm a C8 inlet before buying.

How easy is installation and what should I expect after plugging it in?

Installation is plug-and-play: unplug your TV’s existing power lead, connect the Mission Y splitter to the TV’s C8 inlet, then attach the Apple TV power lead to the splitter. Once connected, both devices receive power from the same source and you’ll immediately notice a tidier cable layout behind your screen.

• No tools, soldering, or configuration needed—just plug and power on.
• Maintains normal power behavior for both TV and Apple TV.
• Check fit in tight inlets before finalizing a recessed or behind-wall layout.

Are there safety or compatibility considerations I should know about?

The splitter routes standard mains to your Apple TV via the TV’s inlet; it’s intended to be used only with compatible C8-style sockets and Apple TV power connectors. Avoid forcing connections, and ensure the TV’s power rating supports added load from the Apple TV for safe, reliable operation.

• Use only with TVs having a C8 mains inlet and compatible voltage rating.
• Do not modify the cable; follow basic electrical safety practices.
• If unsure about compatibility, consult your TV’s specifications or a qualified technician.

Who is this for? This Mission Cables Mission Y Splitter is for anyone who wants a cleaner AV setup—especially owners of wall-mounted TVs, compact media centers, or tight entertainment cabinets. It’s suited to homeowners, installers, and renters who need a simple, reversible way to power an Apple TV without running extra cords or installing new outlets.
