Device Compatibility

This 8-pin to USB cable connects Apple devices such as the iPhone 6, iPod Touch 5th Generation, iPad 4, iPad Mini and iPad Air to a computer or power adapter. It supports both charging and data synchronisation for those specific models. The product is sold new and carries the JacobsParts DTC-U-BLU designation.

Build Integration

The flat, tangle-free profile reduces clutter when routed alongside other desk or travel accessories. A standard USB-A plug fits common ports on laptops, wall chargers or hubs without requiring adapters. The three-foot length provides enough reach for typical desktop or bedside use while keeping excess cable minimal.

Thermals Noise Power

Passive copper conductors draw only the current negotiated by the connected Apple device and the host port. No active electronics or fans are present, so the cable adds no audible noise or measurable heat during normal charging or sync operations. Power delivery remains within standard USB limits.

Questions about this item

How long is the flat cable before it becomes awkward to route around a desk?

The cable measures 3 feet (about 1 metre) end to end, so it reaches from a laptop USB port to a phone on the desk without excess slack.

Does the flat jacket stay cool when the cable is left plugged in all day?

The thin PVC jacket carries only the 5 V USB charging current used by the listed iPhone and iPad models, so it remains at room temperature during continuous use.

Which charger or port do I need to already own for this cable to work?

You need a standard USB-A port — on a computer, wall adapter, car charger or power bank — to plug the cable into for charging or syncing.
