  • 100 W charging for laptops and phones

USB-A to USB-C cable for 100 W charging

This two-pack provides 3.3 ft cables with USB-A plugs on one end and USB-C on the other. They deliver up to 100 W under Power Delivery, QC, AFC and FCP protocols and carry USB 2.0 data at 480 Mbps. An integrated E-Marker chip regulates current and voltage, while an LED display on the USB-C connector shows real-time charging power. The cables are intended for charging and data transfer only; they do not support video output.

Practical limits of the USB 2.0 interface

Data moves at 480 Mbps, so a 1 GB file transfers in roughly 30 seconds, but the link tops out at USB 2.0 speeds. USB 3.0, USB 4.0 and Thunderbolt modes are not available, and the cable cannot drive an external display. Maximum charging power reaches 100 W only when the charger, cable and device all negotiate the same PD profile; actual output varies with the power source.

Capacity and headroom for everyday loads

The 100 W rating comfortably covers phones, tablets, a 13-inch MacBook Pro (about 2.5 h for a full charge), Nintendo Switch and Steam Deck. Laptops that demand more than 100 W will charge more slowly or not at all. Buyers who need video output, Thunderbolt bandwidth or USB 3.x data rates should choose a different cable type.
