POWER DELIVERY (PD)

The Technology Behind Ultra-Fast Charging

The Power Delivery technology has evolved over the years to create products capable of supporting very high power levels, bringing tangible benefits to those who choose to use this charging system, primarily in terms of safety and speed. Let’s explore what it’s all about.

WHAT IS ULTRA-FAST CHARGING WITH USB-C TECHNOLOGY AND HOW DOES IT WORK?

The new Power Delivery technology boasts a universal and highly versatile system that allows power transfer well beyond 100 Watts for ultra-fast charging of various smartphones, tablets, and laptops via compatible USB ports, specifically USB-C. These USB-C circuits are designed to handle high power levels without overheating, while USB-A ports transmit different power levels. The combination of USB-C and Power Delivery enables compatible devices to charge in a very short time, significantly reducing the connection period needed to reach 100% charge.

Safety is the key: Power Delivery technology can regulate its power and adjust the energy output based on the charging needs and temperature of the device, regardless of its size.
Today, thanks to chargers with this technology, device charging times have significantly decreased, by up to 70%.
But what does "Power Delivery" mean?
This technology allows devices to charge at maximum speed and in complete safety. The system automatically adjusts the charging current based on the device, preventing overheating and short circuits.

THE ADVANTAGES OF POWER DELIVERY

INCREASED CHARGING SPEED

Power Delivery technology allows you to significantly reduce the time you have to wait to charge your devices. Its main feature is its ability to power compatible smartphones, tablets or PCs more powerfully to provide ultra-fast charging compared to standards, while still respecting the characteristics and needs of the devices.

GREATER SECURITY

USB-C Power Delivery's ability to deliver high energy supplies does not pose any risk, on the contrary, it is extremely safe. Products equipped with this technology are designed to communicate directly with your device to control and regulate the correct amount of power to be delivered according to the device's needs, ensuring charging without overheating or short circuits.

THE ADVANTAGES OF POWER DELIVERY

GREATER COMFORT

A further strength of Power Delivery is being able to reduce the amount of cables and chargers needed to charge one's devices: as it is a universal technology compatible with numerous devices, only one cable and one power supply is needed to charge several types of smartphones, tablets and PCs. To further optimise, you can also use multi-port chargers that offer ultra-fast charging to several devices at the same time.

LESS WASTE

Eliminating compatibility hurdles by being able to charge all USB-C PD-equipped devices with one interchangeable accessory also translates into reduced waste and technology waste. Products equipped with Power Delivery have therefore realised the possibility of having one practical solution that can meet the needs of multiple devices.

THE ESSENTIALS OF POWER DELIVERY

As mentioned above, only the following are required to switch to Power Delivery technology:

- A cable with a USB-C connector
- A charger with Power Delivery delivered via USB-C port
- A compatible device capable of supporting USB-C Power Delivery technology

CABLE

Cables with USB-C connectors, in addition to the ability to support Power Delivery technology, differ from USB-A cables in that the port is not only narrower but also reversible and therefore easy to connect.

So how do you go about choosing the perfect cable for your devices?

- Based on functionality: to help you make your choice, you can compare the charging power the cable can support (Watts) and its file and data transfer speed (Mbps)
- By features: cables with USB-C connectors have different lengths and can be designed with a variety of materials, e.g. with anti-tangle finishes

Here are some SBS proposals for USB-C cables:

CHARGERS

Considering wall chargers, the options to choose from differ mainly in three aspects: the number of ports present, the type of ports and their combination in the charger (USB-C or USB-A) and finally the charging power (wattage).

SBS's proposals range from chargers with 1, 2, 3 or more ports and different types of combinations between these to adapt to every charging need according to the devices one has. SBS's Power Delivery solutions go even further.

Power Delivery technology reaches into your car with car charger models that quickly charge your devices during car journeys via USB-C and USB-A ports.

THE BEST POWER DELIVERY ACCESSORIES FOR IPHONE AND IPAD

Power Delivery technology covers numerous types of devices from different brands as long as they are compatible with it.

In particular, in addition to the universal products suggested above, certified Made for Apple accessories with Power Delivery technology have also been designed specifically to support Apple devices according to the required performance standards and product needs.

POWERBANK WITH POWER DELIVERY

The power bank is the perfect accessory tocharge your devices while on the move. It is an external power source useful for supplying energy to any electronic device when a wall charger cannot be used: the Power Delivery technology integrated in an extremely valuable accessory like the power bank is the perfect solution for quickly recharging your smartphone on any occasion.
