McMaster has 4" to 2.5" reducers for $3.79

p/n 2221K33
use with a std 4" Y connector
... not sure exactly what you need though (inside vs outside diameter needs to be verified)

I'm looking for something similar to this one from Woodcraft:
Except it splits directly into two 2.5" fittings. I've used the above with a reducer on the other end, but that fitting is pretty large to start with and downright huge with the reducer stuck on the end. The application calls for something much smaller, more like this one from Rocker, except splitting to 2 connections
I think what you're looking for is called a "reducing wye" and will be identified as a "4x2.5x2.5". The first number (4) is the dimension of the outlet leading to the dust collector. The second number (2.5) is the diameter of the inlet coming from the tool and directly in line with the 4" outlet. The third number (2.5) is the diameter of the inlet that branches off to another tool. This numbering system is standard in DC terminology.
As for where to find it, I'm not sure. Check with all the online suppliers of DC duct work. If you have any recent woodworking magazine, they all have adds in them. Otherwise, Google "Dust collectors" and see what you get.

I have seen a 2.5" wye, but not a reducing wye like you describe.
