Lightning Cable for iPhone Users

This StarTech RUSB2ALT50CMBC cable connects an Apple Lightning device to a USB Type-A port for charging and syncing. The 50 cm coiled design keeps the cable compact when not fully extended. MFi certification confirms compatibility with iPhone, iPad and iPod models that use the 8-pin connector. The black TPE jacket and nickel-plated contacts resist everyday wear.

Build Integration and Space Saving

The USB 2.0 Type-A connector plugs into any standard USB-A port on a computer, wall charger or power bank without adapters. At 50 cm the coiled cable reduces clutter on a desk or in a bag while still reaching a nearby device. The aluminium-mylar foil with braid shielding protects data signals from interference during transfers. No additional drivers or software are required for operation.

Sustained Use Behaviour

The thermoplastic elastomer jacket remains flexible after repeated bending and uncoiling cycles. Nickel plating on both connectors resists oxidation that can increase resistance over time. The coiled construction naturally retracts, limiting strain on the Lightning connector when the cable is left plugged in. Shielding maintains consistent USB 2.0 data rates during extended sync sessions.
