SMUGDESK

SMUGDESK USB C to Lightning Cable 6.6ft 1-PACK Apple MFi Certified

SKU CH-1HKS-5BWS3

MFi-certified USB-C to Lightning cable delivers 20 W PD fast charging and reliable data sync for iPhone and iPad models

  • MFi certification guarantees safe, reliable charging and syncing for iPhone and iPad
  • PD 20W fast charging delivers up to 50% battery in 30 minutes with a compatible charger
  • Braided nylon jacket and aluminium plug heads resist tangles and daily wear
  • 6 ft length gives comfortable reach from wall outlet to desk or bedside
  • Stable data transfer to USB-C Mac, iMac or iPad Pro without accessory warnings

What This Cable Does

This USB-C to Lightning cable carries power and data between Apple devices and USB-C hosts. It is Apple MFi certified, so iPhone and iPad models from the 8 series through the 14 series, plus iPad 8 and iPad Pro 10.5 and 12.9 first and second generation, charge and sync without triggering accessory warnings. The 6.6 ft length suits desk or bedside use.

When to Replace an Older Lead

Swap out a frayed Lightning-to-USB-A cable when you move to a USB-C charger or a Mac with only USB-C ports. The PD 20W rating delivers up to 27W maximum, so an iPhone 13 can reach 50 percent charge in 30 minutes with a compatible PD brick. It is not for users who still rely on legacy USB-A power adapters or who need a shorter 3.3 ft cable for tight bags.

Installation and Common Issues

Plug the USB-C end into the charger or computer and the Lightning end into the device; no drivers or setup are required. The braided nylon jacket resists tangling and the aluminium plug housings reduce strain at the connectors. The only typical problem is attempting fast charging with a non-PD power source, which falls back to standard speeds.
