Published on 09/24/2026 at 03:03 | Editorial responsibility: Rafael Müller, Editor-in-Chief AD HOC NEWS
Apple 240W USB-C Charge Cable (2 m), model MYQT3AM/A, connects USB-C devices for charging, syncing, and data transfer. Its woven cable measures 2 meters, uses USB-C connectors at both ends, and supports charging of up to 240 watts.Apple's product specifications also identify USB 2 data rates.
Power And Cable Design
The cable's headline figure is its 240-watt charging capacity. That rating suits compatible high-power USB-C devices, including MacBook models that support USB-C charging, while the connected power adapter remains a separate component.Technical testing identifies the cable as supporting USB Power Delivery at up to 240 watts.
The 2-meter length gives the cable more reach than a short desk cable, and the woven exterior is designed for repeated handling. Apple lists USB-C connectors on both ends, so the cable requires a USB-C port on the device and a USB-C port on the power adapter or computer.
MacBook And iPad Compatibility
The MYQT3AM/A cable is compatible with USB-C-equipped Apple devices, including MacBook Air, MacBook Pro, iPad Air, and iPad Pro models listed by Apple and authorized US business retailers. It can also connect other USB-C devices, provided their ports support the required charging or data function.The documented device list includes mobile phones, tablets, and laptops.
Its main technical limitation is data speed. Apple specifies USB 2 rates, while independent testing lists a maximum data transfer rate of 480 Mbps. That makes the cable suited to charging and routine synchronization, but a faster USB-C or Thunderbolt cable is a better match for large file transfers and high-speed external storage.
Price And Product Position
Apple lists the 240W USB-C Charge Cable (2 m) at $29.00 as of 09/24/2026. A US retail listing identifies the same MYQT3AM/A model, a 2-meter length, USB-C connectors, and a one-year limited warranty.The US listing places it in the standard category of long USB-C charging cables.
Verdict For USB-C Users
The Apple 240W USB-C Charge Cable (2 m) is a charging-first cable for USB-C MacBook, iPad, iPhone, and compatible third-party devices. Its 240-watt rating and woven 2-meter construction are useful for high-power charging, while USB 2 data rates limit it for fast storage work.
