Anker Prime 6 ft USB-C Cable for 240W Charging
This Anker Prime cable carries up to 240W over USB-C to USB-C, using a USB 2.0 connection rated at 480 Mbps. The 6 ft length is wrapped in an upcycled-braided jacket made from 100% post-consumer recycled nylon. It is USB-IF certified and tested to survive over 300,000 bends and 72 hours at temperatures from -40°F to 176°F. A cord organiser is included.
Suits high-wattage laptops and power banks.
Buyers who need DisplayPort Alt Mode for external monitors should choose a different cable, because this one does not support screen mirroring. Users who require 5 Gbps, 10 Gbps or higher transfer rates will not get them here, as the link tops out at 480 Mbps. The cable is built for charging first, so anyone whose workflow depends on fast file moves or video output should look elsewhere.
The deciding spec is 240W USB Power Delivery over
If your charger and device both support 240W USB Power Delivery, this cable will deliver the full rate. If either end only goes to 100W or below, the extra headroom goes unused. The 480 Mbps data ceiling is fixed by the USB 2.0 interface, so the cable cannot serve as a high-speed data link regardless of the ports you plug it into.
