Apple iPhone 14 original data cable uses C91M connector, or last-generation Lightning cable

CTOnews.com news on October 7, according to the charging head news, Apple iPhone 14 original Cmurl data cable connector has been changed from C94 to C91m.

It is reported that the component layout of the new C91m data line is the same as that of the old C94, and there is no significant difference in fast charging performance. Charging head said Apple may have replaced the C91M connector for anti-counterfeiting reasons.

CTOnews.com reported that not long ago, the European Parliament overwhelmingly supported the mandatory use of USB-C as a universal charging port for a variety of consumer electronics devices, including iPhone and AirPods, by the end of 2024. This could mean that the new C91m cable could be Apple's last-generation Lightning cable.

According to the new European Parliament regulation, starting in the autumn of 2024, the USB type-C will become the standard charging port for smartphones, tablets, e-readers, keyboards, computer mice, GPS devices, digital cameras, headphones, handheld video game consoles and portable speakers sold in the European Union. Starting from 2026, USB-C will also become a standard interface for laptop chargers.
