What this cable does

The Anker A8553 is a 6 ft USB-C cable rated for 240 W power delivery. It charges phones, tablets and laptops that accept USB-C power, including Apple iPhone 15 and 16 series devices and MacBook Pro 2020 models. The silicone jacket stays soft and tangle-free in a bag or pocket.

The spec that decides fit

Maximum power output is 240 W, so the cable will only deliver full speed if both the charger and the device support that rate. Data transfer runs at USB 2.0, making it unsuitable for users who need high-bandwidth video or fast file moves over the same wire.

Behaviour under sustained load

The connector withstands a 25,000-bend lifespan, so repeated daily plugging and unplugging does not degrade the contact over time. The soft silicone exterior resists kinking when the cable is coiled tightly around a portable charger for long periods.

Questions about this item

What does the 240 W rating mean when I plug this cable into my laptop?

The cable can carry up to 240 W of power, so it will deliver the full charging speed your USB-C laptop, tablet or phone requests, provided the charger and device both support that level.

The cable is marked USB 2.0 — what does that limit in everyday use?

Data transfers run at USB 2.0 speeds, so large files move slowly, but the 240 W power capability is unaffected and charging remains fast.

Will the 6 ft length and silicone finish let me route the cable behind a desk without kinking?

Yes, the 6 ft length gives slack for routing and the soft silicone jacket resists kinks and stays tangle-free when bent or wrapped.
