Description
CORDS · Viktor Lundberg
Two metres so the notebook can stay where you are sitting.
USB-C Cord A1 at two metres charges at up to 100 watts and moves data at 480 megabits per second. The braided jacket does not twist and does not fray. Two metres reaches from a socket behind the desk to the sofa without the device having to move.
Two metres or one?
You need two metres as soon as the socket is out of reach: behind the desk, under the tabletop, on the opposite wall. In bed and on the sofa it is also the length that keeps the device usable while it charges.
If the charger sits right beside you, one metre is the tidier choice. Surplus cable stays surplus cable, however good it looks.
Why a cable is allowed to cost something
The cable in the box is the first place manufacturers save money. It twists, frays where it meets the connector and goes stiff. The A1 is wrapped in a textile braid that prevents exactly that, and the connector housings carry the cable colour instead of standard black.
Then there is the output: 100 watts is the full step of USB Power Delivery. Many cheap cables cannot carry it and quietly limit charging without anyone noticing.
Charging and data
Up to 100 watts, enough for any USB-C notebook. Data transfer runs at 480 megabits per second under USB 2.0, which covers phone backups, keyboard, mouse and audio, but not fast external SSDs or driving a monitor over DisplayPort.
If you are looking for a cable for a display or a fast external drive, the A1 is not it. For charging and everyday use it is.
Five colours, one cable
Jet Black, Sand, Pale Pink, Electric Orange and Mist White, coordinated across the whole Cords range after Le Corbusier's Architectural Polychromy. A cable in Sand matches the UX1 charger in Sand exactly.

Frequently asked questions
Are two metres too long?
Right beside the charger, yes, one metre is tidier there. As soon as the socket sits behind or under the table, two metres is the only length that works.
Will it charge my notebook at full speed?
Up to 100 watts, the highest step of USB Power Delivery. Any USB-C notebook charges as fast as its power supply allows.
Can I connect a monitor with it?
No. The A1 carries USB 2.0 data at 480 megabits per second and no video signal. For displays you need a cable with DisplayPort Alt Mode.
Is it any good for an external SSD?
Only up to a point. 480 megabits per second is about 60 megabytes per second, which holds a fast SSD well back. For occasional file transfers it is fine.
Will the braid fray over time?
The braid exists precisely to prevent that. The critical point is where the cable meets the connector, and there the jacket runs into the connector housing rather than being glued to it.
Does it match the other Cords products?
Exactly, yes. All products use the same five colour values. The obvious pairing is the UX1 charger, which ships without charging cables.
Which lengths are available?
One and two metres, each in all five colours.
