      Pi Model or other hardware: B+
      Power Supply used: need a solution for a pass through to use case enclosure
      USB Devices connected: Brook Universal Fighting Board
      USB Devices connected: same as above

      Context:
      I have like 3 arcade sticks, and I was planning to use one of the cases to have an all-in-one build; my idea is for the case to contain the following

      The normal Arcade Stick build

      • Brook Universal Fighting Board PCB (PS3/PS4/XBOX...)
      • Joystick
      • 8x 30mm pushbuttons
      • 6x 24mm pushbuttons
      • 20-pin wiring harness
      • Short USB A-B (splitter to connect one to the Pi as main controller)
      • Neutrik USB pass through
      • External USB cable A-B

      And I want to add

      • Raspberry Pi using a Retro-pi Build
      • Neutrik HDMI pass through
      • internal / external HDMI cables
      • Additional Neutrik USB pass through to connect another controller to the Raspberry Pi (or maybe a keyboard when needed)
      • Micro USB pass through (THIS IS MY QUESTION), I have a Raspberry B and B+

      I don't want to have any direct connections to the Raspberry from the outside, I've been browsing for a couple of hours but I haven't seen anything that can help me accomplishing this

      I just want to be able to plug both HDMI and Power on the case enclosure and have 2 internal cables to connect to the raspberry, but I need help on the power passthrough solution, any ideas or suggestions?

        @viciouscrc isn't a simple pass through cable like this one enough?
