Know before you buy
Yes, this cable supports up to 3A and 15W of power output, which is sufficient for standard fast charging on most USB-C smartphones, including recent iPhone, Samsung Galaxy, and Google Pixel models.
This is a USB 2.0 cable, which is designed primarily for reliable charging and basic data syncing. It is not intended for high-speed data transfers like 4K video output or large file backups.
The cable is built with a rugged TPE outer jacket and nickel-plated connectors. It is specifically rated to withstand over 10,000 insertion cycles, making it a durable choice for frequent daily use.
While longer cables can sometimes experience power loss, this cable is engineered to maintain a 3A output at its full 15-foot length. It is an excellent solution for workstations where your power source is located further away from your device.
You can use this cable to connect your laptop to USB-A peripherals or for data syncing. However, please note that 15W of power delivery is generally not enough to charge most modern laptops, which typically require higher wattage.
