INIU e8e393a9-b66d-446b-9c0a-71f6f38a58f0 240W USB-C Cable, 0.3m, 2-Pack

If you need a short USB-C cable for charging devices close to a power source, this INIU two-pack keeps the connection compact and tidy. Each USB-C to USB-C cable is 0.3m long and supports charging up to 240W, making it suited to compatible phones, tablets and laptops when paired with a suitably powerful USB-C charger.

For a desk, bedside table or shared charging area, the short length helps keep excess cable out of the way. The LED indicator adds a visible cue at the connection, while the braided nylon construction is designed for everyday handling.

Key points

The 240W rating and 5A maximum current support fast charging on devices and chargers capable of using those levels. The cable also supports USB-C data transfer at up to 480 Megabits Per Second, so it can handle file transfers as well as charging. Its USB-C male-to-male connectors are suitable for USB-C devices, including the listed iPhone, Samsung, Google Pixel and iPad models. The connected device and charger determine the charging speed, to use higher-power charging, use a USB-C charger with appropriate output.

A pair of short cables suits a different need from a single long cable: it is practical when the device sits near the charger, or when you want one cable at each of two regular charging spots. The black braided finish and LED indicator make the cables easy to identify among everyday desk accessories.

Usage tips

Use the 0.3m length for close-range setups such as charging a phone beside a wall adaptor or connecting a tablet at a desk. Keeping the cable short can make the area around a charger easier to organise, while having two cables gives you the option of setting up separate charging points. For charging, connect the cable to a USB-C power source and the device. For data transfer, connect compatible USB-C devices, the stated transfer rate is up to 480 Megabits Per Second.

Customers highlight the charging speed and describe the cable as well made, with one noting use with a MacBook Pro. Feedback on durability is mixed: some find it sturdy, while others report that it stopped working earlier than expected. These are individual experiences rather than a guarantee of how every cable will perform.

How to use it

Connect one end to a USB-C charger and the other to a USB-C device. For the fastest charging the device supports, the charger must also provide suitable power, the cable’s 240W rating alone does not determine the charging speed. When connecting two devices for data transfer, check that both support the connection and use the cable’s stated 480 Megabits Per Second rate as a guide. The pack includes two 0.3m cables, useful for keeping one at each regular charging spot or using both with separate devices.

Practical questions

Can it charge a laptop? Yes, it can be used with USB-C laptops, including MacBook Pro models noted by customers. The laptop and USB-C charger must support the required charging power.

Does it transfer data as well as charge? Yes. It supports USB-C data transfer at up to 480 Megabits Per Second, alongside charging.

What is the cable length? Each cable is 0.3m long, so it is intended for charging or connecting devices placed close to the power source or each other.

Buying verdict

For a compact charging setup, the INIU two-pack brings together a short 0.3m length, a 240W charging rating, USB-C data transfer and an LED indicator. It is a practical fit for keeping close-by USB-C devices connected without a long cable trailing across a desk or bedside table.
