Condition: New

The Budi DC206TT20B USB-C to USB-C cable carries 65W Power Delivery charging across a 2-metre braided length, and it now sells at Mascom International for KSh 1,200. This is a charge-and-sync cable built around a nylon braided jacket with metal alloy connector housings at both ends. Both plugs are reversible USB-C, so orientation never slows you down in a dark matatu. The Budi DC206TT20B is in stock today at Mascom International, Old Mutual Building, First Floor Room 4, Kimathi Street, Nairobi CBD. Walk in Monday to Saturday between 9:00 AM and 7:00 PM to handle the cable yourself, or order it for countrywide delivery.
University students in Nairobi, field sales teams, accountants, photographers and long-commute professionals all share one complaint. The cable that came in the box is too short, and it gives up after a few months of daily coiling. A 1-metre cord forces you to sit on the floor beside the socket. Frayed connector necks stop charging halfway through a session. The Budi DC206TT20B answers both problems with a 2-metre run and a woven jacket that survives being stuffed into a laptop bag every morning. At 65W it refills a USB-C laptop, a tablet and a phone from one cable.
Unlike the unbranded cords sold from street tables around Nairobi, the Budi DC206TT20B carries a real model number, a stated current rating and a 6-month warranty from Mascom International. Customers consistently report that laptops which refused to charge on cheap cables charge normally on this one. At Mascom International, we're seeing more Kenyan buyers move to a single 65W cable instead of keeping separate cords for phone and laptop. Test the Budi DC206TT20B on your own device at our Kimathi Street shop, or order it with payment on arrival anywhere in Kenya.
Common Questions About the Budi DC206TT20B Cable
Should I buy the 1.5-metre version or this 2-metre one?
Buy the 2-metre cord if you charge away from the socket, behind a sofa, across a bed, or from a wall outlet in a shared office. The extra 500 millimetres costs KSh 400 more, which works out to under one shilling a week across a two-year life. Choose the shorter 1.5-metre cord instead if it lives permanently in a bag or beside a desk socket, where spare slack only coils up and gets in the way.
Does a 2-metre length slow charging down?
No. Voltage drop across two metres of correctly gauged copper is too small to notice on a phone, tablet or ultrabook. The Budi DC206TT20B uses thicker conductors than the thin cord bundled in most retail boxes, which is why it holds 3A steadily under load instead of sagging. What you gain is reach: a socket behind furniture, a bed in a hotel room, or an outlet across a shared office floor.
What wall adapter do I need to actually reach 65W?
The cable never adds speed on its own; the adapter sets it. Pair the Budi DC206TT20B with a 65W USB-C GaN charger and a 13-inch MacBook Air refills in roughly 1.5 hours. A 45W Samsung adapter takes a Galaxy S24 to about half capacity in 20 to 25 minutes. Plug into a 10W brick and you get 10W. Mascom International stocks matching 20W, 45W and 65W adapters alongside the cable.
Does this cable carry video to an external monitor?
No. This is a charge-and-sync cord rather than a DisplayPort Alt Mode cable, so it will not drive a monitor, projector or docking station screen. Data runs at USB 2.0 speed, up to 480Mbps, which covers phone photo transfers, Android backups and document syncing without trouble. If you need a laptop mirrored to a monitor over USB-C, ask our counter staff for a full-featured video cable instead. Buying the wrong cord for that job is a common and avoidable mistake.
Is it safe to leave a laptop charging overnight on this cable?
Yes. Charging is negotiated between the adapter and the device rather than forced by the cable, and both stop drawing current once the battery fills. The identification resistor inside the Budi DC206TT20B reports the correct current rating, so the charger never pushes more than the cord can carry. Unbranded cables that skip that resistor are the ones that run warm overnight. Use a surge-protected extension where mains voltage swings.
Does it work with iPhone 15, iPhone 16 and iPhone 17?
Yes. Every iPhone from the 15 series onward uses a USB-C port, so this cable charges and syncs them directly with no adapter needed. iPhone models cap wired charging near 27W, so the 65W headroom simply goes unused rather than causing a problem. The same cord also handles an iPad Air, an iPad Pro, AirPods Pro and a MacBook. iPhone 14 and older need a Lightning cable, which Mascom International also stocks.
Why pay KSh 1,200 when street stalls sell cords for KSh 300?
Cheap cords use thin conductors and skip the resistor that tells your charger how much current to send. The result is slow charging, warm plugs and, sometimes, a damaged charging port on a phone worth far more than the cable. The Budi DC206TT20B is a named model with a stated 3A rating and a 6-month Mascom International warranty. Over two years, one cable here costs less than four replacements at KSh 300 each.
Can I use it for gaming with a Switch, Steam Deck or controllers?
Yes. It powers a Nintendo Switch in handheld mode, charges a Steam Deck at its full rated input, and refills DualSense and Xbox controllers from any USB-C source. The 2-metre length matters here. You keep playing from the sofa while the console or handheld charges from a wall socket behind the TV unit. Short cords force you to sit beside the outlet, which defeats handheld gaming entirely.
How do I get one if I am outside Nairobi?

- Transfers a 2GB recorded video from phone to laptop in about one minute of connected time
- Charges and syncs at the same time, so backups run while your battery refills before a trip
- Handles Android file transfer, iPhone to Mac syncing, DSLR card dumps and phone-to-PC document moves
- Not intended for external SSD work above 480Mbps; choose a 10Gbps cable for heavy video editing
Device Compatibility Across Brands

Build Quality and Daily Durability
- Nylon braided outer jacket resists fraying, tangling and the abrasion of daily coiling into a laptop bag
- Metal alloy connector housings at both plugs spread bending stress away from the fragile cord neck
- Thermoplastic strain relief sits between cord and housing, the exact point where cheap cables split first
- Tinned copper conductors carry 3A without the heat build-up that makes thin cables warm to the touch
- Black finish hides the dust and red soil marks that show quickly on white cables during Kenyan travel
- Withstands repeated bending, twisting and tugging far better than the moulded plastic cables bundled with phones
Cable Length and Everyday Placement
- 2-metre run reaches from a wall socket behind furniture to a sofa, bed or desk without stretching
- Doubles the reach of the 1-metre cable in most retail boxes, ending floor-sitting beside the nearest outlet
- Long enough to keep a phone in hand while it charges from a socket across a hotel room
- Suits shared offices and co-working spaces in Westlands and Upper Hill where sockets sit far from desks
- Coils neatly for transport, unlike stiff PVC cables that keep the shape of the last bend
Safety Protection and Handling
- Built-in identification resistor tells the charger the correct current, preventing the overheating common with unbranded cables
- Shielded conductors reduce electrical interference during simultaneous charging and data transfer sessions
- Handles the voltage fluctuations common on Kenyan mains when paired with a surge-protected adapter or extension
- Keep the cable away from sharp bag zips and avoid pulling it out by the cord rather than the housing
- Wipe the connector housings occasionally with a dry cloth to clear dust from the Type-C contacts
Package Contents
- Budi DC206TT20B USB-C to USB-C cable, 2 metres, black braided finish
