Anker PowerLine II USB-C to Lightning Cable 3ft

This three-foot cable connects Apple Lightning devices to USB-C or Thunderbolt ports for charging and data sync. It carries Apple MFi certification, confirming full compatibility with iPhone, iPad and iPod models that use the Lightning connector. The black TPE jacket wraps a bulletproof-fibre core rated for over twelve thousand bend cycles in lab testing.

Upgrade from older USB-A to Lightning leads

Replacing a USB-A cable with this USB-C version enables Power Delivery fast charging on supported iPhone 8 and newer models when paired with a compatible 29W, 30W, 61W or 87W USB-C power adapter. The jump is worth it if you want quicker top-ups and a single cable that also works with modern Mac and iPad Pro ports. Users staying with legacy USB-A chargers will not see a speed benefit.

Check your charger and device port before ordering

Ensure you have a USB-C Power Delivery charger rated at one of the listed wattages to unlock fast charging on supported iPhones. Verify that your iPhone, iPad or iPod uses a Lightning connector; devices with USB-C or older 30-pin ports cannot use this cable. The three-foot length suits desk or bedside use but may be short for distant wall outlets.

Questions about this item

What clearance is needed for the 3 ft cable to reach from a USB-C charger to an iPhone 12?

The cable is 3 ft long, so allow at least that distance between the USB-C Power Delivery charger and the Lightning port on the iPhone 12 for a comfortable connection.

Which step is often missed when setting up fast charging with a USB-C Power Delivery adapter?

Connect the USB-C end to a compatible Power Delivery charger such as the Apple 29W, 30W, 61W or 87W USB-C Power Adapter, then plug the Lightning end into the iPhone 8 or later to enable fast charging.

How often will the bulletproof fiber strengthened TPE exterior need replacement under normal use?

The cable is tested to withstand over 12000 bends and lasts 12× longer than standard cables, so the exterior typically does not require replacement for the lifetime of the product.
