The Belkin CAA004BT1MBK lightning cable 1 m Black is a reliable solution for iPhone and iPad users requiring a durable charging and syncing lead. This cable is designed for users who need a robust connection between a USB-C power source and a Lightning device. It features a braided nylon exterior for enhanced durability and is MFi-certified to ensure compatibility with Apple devices.

Built for Daily Charging and Syncing

This cable connects a USB-C port to a Lightning device. The 1-metre length offers flexibility for desk or travel use. Because it is MFi-certified, it meets Apple’s strict performance standards. You can use it to charge your iPhone or sync data between your iPad and computer. The straight connectors provide a secure fit without unnecessary strain on the port.

Enhanced Durability and Design

The cable features an enhanced braided nylon exterior. This construction helps resist fraying and internal damage. It has been tested to survive over 10,000 bends, making it a long-lasting accessory. The black finish maintains a professional look. The robust build quality means it can handle the rigours of daily commuting or office use.

Fast Charging Capability

When paired with an 18W USB-PD charger, this cable supports fast charging for compatible iPhones. According to the manufacturer, it can charge an iPhone 8 or later from zero to 50% in 30 minutes. Please note that the charger itself is not included with this cable. You must provide your own USB-C power adapter to achieve these speeds. Always verify your power adapter’s wattage output for best results.

Reliable Connectivity

Both connectors are male and straight, ensuring a stable connection. The Lightning connector plugs into your iPhone or iPad, while the USB-C connector fits modern power banks and wall adapters. The Plug and Play design requires no additional software or setup. Simply connect your devices to begin charging or syncing immediately.

Slim Specifications

Optimised for Apple Ecosystem

This cable works with a range of Apple devices. It supports charging and data syncing for iPhones and iPads with Lightning ports. The MFi certification guarantees that it will not trigger error messages when used with iOS updates. For example, you can connect your device to a USB-C laptop or power bank. In practice, this provides a versatile connection for modern setups.

Straight Connector Form Factor

The cable uses straight connectors on both ends. This form factor is ideal for tight spaces or when connecting to front-facing ports on a desktop computer. It reduces the risk of bending the cable at sharp angles. However, if you require an angled connector for specific installations, this model uses a standard straight design. Verify your spatial constraints before purchase.
