The Budi DC023TT Type-C to Type-C cable is in stock at Mascom International for KSh 450, carrying USB Power Delivery fast charging up to 60W and data transfer rated at 480Mbps. The Budi DC023TT wraps its conductors in a nylon braid and caps both ends with an aluminium alloy connector shell, so it survives the daily coiling, bag pressure and sharp tugs that kill ordinary cables. Both plugs are reversible, which means no fumbling in the dark. Collect the Budi DC023TT at Old Mutual Building, First Floor Room 4, Kimathi Street, Nairobi CBD, or order it for delivery anywhere in Kenya.
Most people replace a charging cable two or three times a year, and each replacement costs more than this one. The Budi DC023TT is built for Nairobi office workers who charge at the desk, university students moving between lecture halls and hostels, field sales teams working out of vehicles, boda riders who charge in short bursts, and photographers offloading cards onto a laptop. The bundled cable that came in your phone box usually frays at the plug within eight months and starts dropping data connections long before that. A braided cable with a metal collar solves that problem for the price of two matatu fares.
At KSh 450, this cable sits below what many Nairobi shops charge for unbranded braided cables of unknown current rating. Budi has manufactured mobile accessories since 2009 and ships to more than 76 countries, with CE, FCC and RoHS certification behind its products. Customers who buy cables from Mascom International consistently report that the braided jacket outlasts three or four of the thin cables sold at kiosks. Come and plug the Budi DC023TT into your own phone at our Kimathi Street counter before you pay, or order it on pay-on-arrival delivery and check it at your door.
Common Questions About the Budi DC023TT Type-C to Type-C Cable
Is the Budi DC023TT really tougher than a cheap KSh 100 cable?
Yes, and the difference sits at the plug. Almost every failed cable breaks where the cord meets the connector, because thin plastic there flexes until the internal wires snap. The Budi DC023TT uses an aluminium alloy housing over that joint and a nylon braid along the cord, which spreads bending force instead of concentrating it. The braid also stops the cable knotting in a bag. Budi builds this cable to CE, FCC and RoHS standards, unlike unbranded cables with no stated current rating.
Will the Budi DC023TT charge a laptop or is it only for phones?
It charges both. The cable handles USB Power Delivery negotiation up to 60W, which covers the charging needs of most Type-C laptops including MacBook Air, Dell XPS, HP EliteBook and Lenovo ThinkPad models with USB-C power input. Pair it with a 45W or 65W USB-C adapter and your laptop will charge at close to its normal rate. Heavy gaming or video rendering can drain a laptop faster than 60W refills it, but for office and study work the cable keeps up.
How much faster will my phone charge compared with the cable in my box?
That depends on your adapter, not the cable alone. A cable carries power; it does not create it. The Budi DC023TT passes the full 3A that modern USB-C chargers negotiate, whereas many bundled and kiosk cables cap out near 2A and quietly slow your charge. With a 33W or 45W adapter, a 5000mAh phone typically reaches about half charge in 30 minutes. Swap in a thin cable and that same charge can take twice as long.
Does the Budi DC023TT work with the iPhone 15 Pro and newer Apple devices?
Yes. Apple moved the iPhone 15 series and everything after it to USB-C, so the Budi DC023TT plugs straight in with no adapter. It also fits iPad Pro, iPad Air, MacBook Air and MacBook Pro, plus AirPods cases with USB-C. Apple's 20W, 30W and 35W USB-C adapters all work with it at their rated speeds. For older iPhone models with a Lightning port, ask our team about the DC023TL variant instead, which carries a Lightning connector.
Can I transfer photos and videos with it, or does it only charge?
It does both. The Budi DC023TT carries data at USB 2.0 speed, rated 480Mbps, which works out to roughly 60MB every second in real use. A 4GB video file moves across in about two minutes when both devices sustain that rate. That covers phone-to-laptop photo backups, Android file transfer, camera offloads and firmware updates. One limit worth knowing: the cable does not carry a video signal, so it will not drive an external monitor from your laptop's Type-C port.
Will it support Samsung Super Fast Charging and other brand fast-charge modes?
Yes, for the 25W and 45W Samsung Super Fast Charging tiers that run on USB Power Delivery with PPS. PPS means the charger adjusts voltage in small steps rather than jumping, which keeps the battery cooler during a fast charge. The same applies to Xiaomi, Tecno, Infinix, Oppo and Google Pixel handsets that use standard USB PD. Brands running proprietary charging systems above 65W may fall back to a slower standard rate through any 3A cable.
Is my phone safe if I leave the Budi DC023TT plugged in overnight?
Yes. Charging is negotiated between your charger and your phone, and this cable simply reports its 3A capability honestly rather than allowing more current than its conductors can carry. Cheap cables with undersized copper are the ones that heat up, because they resist current and turn that resistance into heat. Your phone's own charging circuit stops the flow once the battery fills. The RoHS marking also confirms the materials avoid lead, mercury and cadmium above regulated limits.
Can I use it with a power bank, a car charger and a laptop dock?
Yes to all three. Any Type-C port that follows the USB standard accepts this cable, so it works with USB-C power banks, matatu and car USB-C sockets, laptop docking stations, monitors with USB-C charging output, and wall adapters. It also supports reverse wired charging on phones that offer it, letting you top up earbuds or a smartwatch from your handset. One cable in your bag replaces three, which matters when you are moving between office, vehicle and home.
Technical Specifications
Charging Performance and Power Delivery
- Handles USB Power Delivery negotiation up to 60W at 20V and 3A, covering phones, tablets and Type-C laptops
- Carries the full output of 20W, 25W, 33W, 45W and 65W USB-C wall chargers without dropping below the 3A ceiling
- Charges a 5000mAh phone battery from empty to roughly half in about 30 minutes with a matching fast adapter
- Works with USB PD PPS chargers, which step voltage gradually to hold down heat during rapid charging sessions
- Passes enough current to keep a Type-C laptop topped up through a normal working day of documents and browsing
- Adds no power of its own — charging speed depends on your adapter's rating and your device's own limit
Data Transfer and Sync Capability

Cable Construction and Durability
- Nylon braided outer jacket resists fraying at the plug, the exact point where most bundled cables fail first
- Aluminium alloy connector housing spreads bending stress rather than letting it concentrate on internal solder joints
- Reinforced strain relief at both ends withstands repeated coiling into a laptop sleeve, backpack or trouser pocket
- Braided weave stops the cable knotting inside a bag, saving the minute you waste untangling it at a desk
- Copper conductors sized for a steady 3A carry current with less heat buildup than thin budget cable cores
- Matte braid resists the fingerprints and grime that build up on cables carried through dusty Nairobi commutes
Connector Design and Everyday Handling
- Both plugs are reversible, so either end goes into either port without checking orientation in poor light
- Slim connector collar clears thick protective phone cases without forcing you to remove the case each time
- Light overall weight makes the cable easy to coil into a glovebox, pencil case or laptop bag pocket
- Compact form factor means one cable in your bag replaces separate charger, laptop and accessory cords
- Stocked in black and white finishes at Mascom International, subject to the colours available at the time
Safety Protection and Certification
- Built-in current handling holds draw at the negotiated level instead of forcing extra power into your device
- CE and FCC marks cover electrical safety and radio interference standards recognised across European and US markets
- RoHS compliance confirms the cable avoids lead, mercury and cadmium above internationally regulated material limits
- Steady 3A handling protects your phone's charging circuit from the voltage dips that undersized cables cause
- Budi has produced mobile accessories since 2009 and exports to more than 76 countries under its own certifications
- Overcurrent and short-circuit protection built into the conductor design guards both charger and connected device
