Anker could be about to launch a new 240W USB-C to USB-C braided cable made from upcycled materials. The accessory was shown in an image on Reddit, which suggests it will sit in the Prime range. The product appeared shortly after the company launched a different 240W USB-C to USB-C cable worldwide.

Another Anker 240W USB-C to USB-C cable looks to be on the way. A leaked product image indicates that this accessory will land in the company’s Prime range, with the word “PRIME” written on a part of the cable. If this is the case, it will be the first Anker Prime cable.

The 240W USB-C to USB-C cable is braided with upcycled material, as seen on the recently released USB-C to USB-C Cable (240W, Upcycled-Braided). While the maximum charging power remains the same, the Prime model will likely have a higher data transfer rate than the standard accessory, which offers 480 Mbps. As with the older model, the Prime cable is said to be offered in two lengths, 3 ft (90 cm) and 6 ft (180 cm). The image shows a black braided cable with a dark gray metallic connector housing; whether or not other color variants will be available is unclear.

It remains to be seen when the Anker Prime USB-C to USB-C Cable (240W, Upcycled-Braided) will launch and in which countries. A Reddit post from u/joshuadwx suggests that the 3 ft (90 cm) version will retail for $29.99 in the US, while the 6 ft (180 cm) variant will cost $34.99. This would make it more expensive than the Anker USB-C to USB-C Cable (240W, Upcycled-Braided), which retails for $21.99/$24.99.
