Counterfeit Cable

Buying & Quality

A cable that falsely claims compliance with a standard or brand, potentially posing safety and performance risks.

Counterfeit cables may use thinner wire gauges than labeled, lack required e-marker chips, use fake certification logos, or skip safety features like over-current protection. They are particularly dangerous for high-power USB PD charging. Buy from reputable brands and authorized retailers to avoid counterfeits.
