DELL SM65CF-02 100W USB-C Adapter
The DELL SM65CF-02 is a 100W USB-C AC adapter built for MacBook Pro and MacBook Air models from 2016 through 2025. It also supports iPad Pro, iPad Air, and a wide range of USB-C laptops and phones from Dell, Lenovo, Samsung, Google, and Huawei. The unit delivers 20V at up to 5A for full-speed charging across compatible devices.
Installation and common issues
The adapter uses a standard USB-C connector and includes a detachable power cord for AC input between 100V and 240V. No drivers or software are required; plug the cable into the device and the cord into a wall outlet. A frequent issue is using a cable rated below 5A, which limits output to 60W and prevents the adapter from reaching its 100W rating.
Sustained-load behaviour
Built-in cooling and IC chip protection guard against overheating, overload, and short circuits during continuous operation. The adapter maintains 20V 4.7A DC output (85W) under steady load, with headroom for 100W peaks when the connected device negotiates higher current. Protection circuits engage automatically if temperature or current exceed safe limits.

Questions about this item
How can I verify the DELL SM65CF-02 is delivering 100 W through the USB-C port after I plug it in?
The adapter is rated for 100 W maximum output at 20 V 5 A; your MacBook or iPad will show the charging wattage in its battery or power settings once the Type-C cable is connected.
What comes in the box with the SM65CF-02 and which cable must I supply myself?
You receive 1 AC adapter and 1 AC power cord; the USB-C charging cable that plugs into your laptop or phone is not included and must be purchased separately.
The specs list both 85 W and 100 W — which capacity should I choose for a MacBook Pro 16-inch M3?
Select the 100 W version; it provides the full 20 V 5 A profile that the 16-inch MacBook Pro M3 requires for maximum charging speed.
