Guide & know-how
3-in-1 multi cables at RPD combine USB-C, Lightning and Micro-USB in a single cable — three connectors on a single cable, ideal for travel, car, office or as a family charging solution. With one cable you can charge iPhone (5–14 via Lightning, 15+ via USB-C), iPad, AirPods, Galaxy, older Android phones, power banks and headphones. The multi cables deliver up to 18 W of charging power (3 A on a USB-A adapter) and are primarily designed for charging, not high-speed data. Same-day dispatch from our Basel warehouse for orders before 4 pm, free above CHF 15, 2-year Swiss warranty. Invoice payment available (credit check by Powerpay).
A 3-in-1 multi cable covers the three most common smartphone ports: USB-C (modern Android, iPhone 15+, iPad), Lightning (iPhone 5–14, older iPads, AirPods Pro 1) and Micro-USB (Android before ~2017, headphones, power banks, Bluetooth speakers). One cable instead of three in your backpack. Handy in the car, on trips, in hotels and for households with mixed devices.
3-in-1 cables are charging cables, not data cables — most support USB 2.0 (480 Mbps), enough for sync, not for high-speed backups. Typical maximum charging power is 18 W on a USB-A adapter (5 V / 3 A). For USB-PD fast charging on iPhone 15+ or Galaxy use a pure USB-C-to-USB-C cable. The Lightning leg is usually not MFi-certified — works reliably for charging but may show an „accessory not supported“ warning after iOS updates.
We stock multi cables with nylon-braided sleeves, designed to be bent repeatedly, caught in car doors and beaten up at festivals. Braided models last about twice as long as plain PVC and are tested up to 10,000 bends. Connectors use aluminium or zinc-alloy housings. CE marking and overload protection are standard.
0.5 m for power bank on a backpack strap, 1 m as universal default (travel, bag), 1.2–1.5 m classic for car centre console and desk, 2 m when the socket is further away (hotel, bed, sofa). Shorter models are cheaper and take less space, longer ones give more movement.
