Magnetic USB-C cable with 240W support offers tidy, versatile charging on the go

The CIO Spiral Cable CtoC 2m stands out with its strong magnetic hold, high-power charging support up to 240W, and an extended 2-metre length, providing a flexible and reliable solution for mobile charging needs.

For people who regularly charge a smartphone or laptop on the move, a magnetic USB-C cable can be a small but useful convenience. The Gizmodo Japan article says CIO’s Spiral Cable CtoC 2m stands out because its magnetic hold is strong enough to keep the cable neatly wrapped without the fuss that often comes with similar products.

The cable’s main selling point is not just tidiness but specification. According to CIO’s product information, the 2m model supports up to 240W under USB-PD 3.1 EPR, along with 5A charging, which makes it suitable for demanding laptops as well as phones and tablets. It also supports data transfer at up to 480Mbps, although it does not handle video output.

Length is another reason the 2m version is practical. Shorter magnetic cables are often fine when a power bank is close at hand, but they can be awkward in cafés, hotels or restaurants where the nearest socket is farther away. The longer lead adds some weight and bulk, but it widens the number of situations in which the cable is actually usable.

CIO also backs the product with a warranty that can be extended to 2 years if the user registers it on the company website, rather than the standard 1 year. The cable is sold in six colours, including black, white, green, pink, blue and purple, which gives it a degree of personalisation that many accessory buyers will appreciate.
