Elecom has launched the 'Shiro-chan Display Cable (USB Type-C - USB Type-C/100W/Mesh),' which allows users to check the charging status through the expressions of 'Shiro-chan' displayed on the connector's screen. Prices range from 1,980 yen to 2,080 yen. It supports up to 100W charging via USB Power Delivery and is compatible with a wide range of devices, including smartphones, PCs, tablets, and mobile batteries.
When connected, the new product displays Shiro-chan on the connector's screen, and Shiro-chan's expression gradually changes from sleeping to wide awake, depending on the change in charging power. This makes it easy to grasp the charging status just by looking, combining visual appeal with practicality.
The cable's outer sheath features an easy-to-handle structure prioritizing flexibility and scratch-resistant nylon mesh. It also supports data transfer speeds of up to 480Mbps, and with an eMarker chip, it automatically adjusts the voltage for connected devices, ensuring stable charging. Furthermore, it boasts specifications focused on usability and reliability, such as aluminum connectors, double shielding to suppress external noise interference, and gold-plated pins to minimize signal degradation.
The lineup includes two cable lengths: approximately 1m and 2m, available in two colors: black and white.
