Slim Specs Table

Safe Charging and Data Sync

The cable supports a maximum input current of 2.4 A. This allows for efficient charging when used with a suitable Apple USB Power Adapter or a computer port. The internal copper wiring is designed to minimise resistance. So, you get reliable power delivery for daily use.

It also supports USB 2.0 data transfer at 480 Mbit/s. This is suitable for syncing music, photos, and contacts. However, it is not designed for high-speed video output. For example, it will not support video mirroring to a display without an active converter.

Straight Connectors and 1m Length

Both connectors have a straight form factor. This design is often preferred for tight spaces, such as behind a desk or in a car console. The 1-metre length offers a balance between reach and portability. It is long enough for most desk setups but short enough to avoid tangling.

Because the connectors are male on both ends, they plug directly into your device and a power source. The white colour helps it blend with Apple hardware. However, always verify the physical fit with your specific device case, as some bulky cases may require a different connector shape.

MFI Certification and Compatibility

The MFI certification is a critical technical proof point. It means Apple has authorised the use of the Lightning connector technology. This cable is intended for iPhone, iPad, and iPod models with a Lightning port. It does not support newer USB-C devices.

In practice, MFI certification reduces the risk of charging interruptions. It also helps maintain device battery health over time. However, we cannot guarantee compatibility with every third-party charger or data port. You should always check your device specifications.
