DELL 100W USB-C Power Adapter

The DELL SM100CL-01 is a 100W USB-C AC adapter designed for laptops and tablets that charge through a USB-C port. It delivers up to 20V at 5A using the included 6 ft USB-C to USB-C cable. The unit accepts a universal 100-240V input for worldwide use. It suits owners of compatible MacBook Pro, MacBook Air and iPad Pro models needing a replacement or spare charger.

Practical limits of USB-C Power Delivery

This adapter negotiates multiple output profiles including 20V 5A, 15V 3A, 9V 3A and 5.2V 3A up to a maximum of 100W. It will only supply the power level that the connected device requests through the USB-C PD handshake. The cable is rated for 5A current so it can carry the full 100W without loss. Devices limited to lower PD profiles such as 29W, 30W, 61W, 67W, 87W or 96W will draw only their rated maximum.

What to verify before ordering

Confirm that your laptop or tablet charges exclusively through a USB-C port and supports USB Power Delivery. This set uses a USB-C connector on both ends of the cable; it is not compatible with MagSafe or magnetic charging ports. Check that your device appears in the supplied compatibility list covering specific MacBook Pro, MacBook Air, MacBook Retina and iPad Pro model numbers. The adapter provides 85W rated output power per the DELL specification label.

Questions about this item

The box lists 100 W on the label but the specifications sheet shows 85 W — which figure should I plan for?

The adapter is rated for a maximum output of 100 W (20 V at 5 A) and also lists an 85 W rating; the higher 100 W is the peak capability when the connected device negotiates 20 V / 5 A.

Will this charger actually deliver 100 W to a MacBook Pro 16-inch, or will it fall back to a lower profile?

It supports the 20 V / 5 A profile required for 100 W charging, so a compatible MacBook Pro 16-inch can draw the full 100 W provided the cable and device negotiate that profile.

The USB-C cable is 6 ft and rated 5 A — does that length cap the power below 100 W?

The included 6 ft (1.8 m) cable is built with thicker copper and a 5 A e-marker chip, allowing it to carry the full 20 V / 5 A (100 W) without reduction.
