This 240W USB-C cable’s connector both rotates and bends

Japanese accessory maker Sanwa Supply has released a new 240W USB-C cable with a flexible design that could help prevent damage, as spotted by Tom’s Hardware. The USB-C connectors on either end of the cable can rotate 360 degrees and bend from side-to-side up to 180 degrees, reducing strain on ports and minimizing bending that could eventually cause wires inside to break.

The company sells a lot of its peripherals through Amazon in the US and Japan, but the new flexible USB-C cable doesn’t appear to be available there yet. For the time being you’ll need to try to import it from Sanwa Supply’s own online store where it’s available in two lengths: one meter for ￥2,580 (around $16.53) or 1.8 meters for ￥2,780 (around $17.80).

Although there are still very few devices that can actually charge at 240W speeds, Sanwa’s new cable could help future-proof your charging kit. However, data transfers with the cable are limited to USB 2.0 speeds and will max out at 480mbps. That’s much slower than the 40Gbps transfer speeds offered by other 240W USB-C cables.

It’s not an ideal solution for those frequently copying mountains of data, but if you’ve got USB ports located in tight spots, or want more freedom of movement when using your smartphone while it’s plugged in, this could be a solution.
