What this cable does

This USB-A to USB-C cable delivers up to 80 watts of power and transfers data at USB 2.0 480Mbps. It is built for charging phones, tablets and laptops that accept Power Delivery, QC, AFC or FCP protocols. The 3.3ft length suits desktop or bedside use. It does not carry a video signal.

Practical limits of USB 2.0

The cable tops out at 480Mbps, so large file moves take longer than on a USB 3.0 or 3.1 link. It cannot drive an external display or a dock that needs alternate-mode video. The E-Mark chip negotiates the 7A current for safe 80W charging. Only USB-C devices that support PD, QC, AFC or FCP will reach the maximum rate.

Deciding spec — 80W power delivery

The single figure that decides fit is the 80W maximum output. If your laptop or tablet draws more than 80W over USB-C, this cable will not charge it at full speed. For devices rated at or below 80W the braided nylon jacket and 35000-bend rating give a durable daily connection.

Questions about this item

Should I choose the 3.3 ft or the 6.6 ft version?

The 3.3 ft cable is this listing; the 6.6 ft version is a separate listing. Pick the shorter one for desk charging or the longer one if you need reach across a room.

What does the 80 W rating mean when I plug it into my laptop?

It can deliver up to 80 W of power when both the charger and the laptop support USB Power Delivery, so a compatible notebook will charge at its maximum supported speed.

The cable is labelled USB 2.0 480 Mbps — what does that cap in practice?

Data moves at up to 480 Mbps, which is USB 2.0 speed, and the connection does not carry video signals.
