powerbank and other device pluged to an A9 at the same time

 I want to power my Sony A9 with a power bank via the (only) usb micro plug of the camera. Then how can I plug CamRanger2 or other devices with usb micro plugs to the camera? Is there any split cable available?

Hubert

The exact reason I use a dummy battery setup. Once you have that port occupied for power it pretty much botches tethering or using a remote, wired or otherwise. I've found the power outgo is more than incoming and doesn't keep up with battery depletion.

Thanks VTC. Which dummy battery setup do you use?

Bunch available on Amazon. Some just have a cable alone but I got one that also had a mains plug in for $20 or so. Have a cradle that holds NP-F battery with 2 pigtails / ports (I modified the cradle so I could power multiple devices) that I will power both the camera and Blackmagic Video Assist V when rigged up.
