Apple MW493ZM/A | Certified USB‑C Cable

The Apple MW493ZM/A USB cable 1 m USB C White is a straight‑to‑straight USB‑C lead for everyday charging and data tasks. It is aimed at UK users who need a dependable 1 metre cable for laptops, tablets and phones. The most defensible USP is 60 W USB Power Delivery support via USB‑C to USB‑C.

This cable is suited to home, office and travel setups where compact length and reliability matter. Because it is white and straight, it is easy to identify and route neatly. Also, the 1 m length reduces clutter on desks and in bags.

Key Specifications

Reliable USB‑C to USB‑C Connectivity

Both ends use a USB‑C connector with a straight form factor. This provides a secure fit for modern ports on Macs, iPads and Windows devices. Because the connectors are male to male, it plugs directly into devices or chargers without adapters.

In practice, the straight connectors suit flush ports and docks. However, if your case is very tight, check clearance before purchase. Also, confirm the device supports USB‑C data and charging.

60 W USB Power Delivery Support

The cable supports USB Power Delivery revision 2.0 up to 60 W. This is suitable for charging many laptops, tablets and phones that accept USB‑C PD. For example, it can power devices that draw up to 60 W via USB‑C.

Note that actual charge speed depends on your charger and device. Also, devices requiring higher wattage may need a cable rated above 60 W. So, verify your device’s power needs before use.

Compact 1 Metre Length

At 1 m, this cable balances reach and portability. It is long enough for desk use and short enough to avoid tangles in a bag. Because the length is fixed, plan your setup around this distance.

In practice, 1 m works well with power banks and wall chargers. However, if you need more reach, consider a longer certified cable. Also, check cable routing around furniture and accessories.

Straight Connectors for Easy Insertion

The straight connector form factor aligns directly with ports for straightforward insertion. This reduces strain compared with angled connectors in tight spaces. Because the connectors are straight, they are easier to plug and unplug in most setups.

However, some enclosures may prefer a right‑angle connector. Also, confirm port orientation and clearance if space is limited. So, assess your device’s port layout before buying.
