Belkin wants you to invest on the right cable – Hungry Geeks

Franklin Garcia 9 years ago 2 min read

Data and Charger cables are widely available now in the market and they are literally everywhere. Unfortunately so does substandard cables have been available, so wide they even cover more ground than legitimate 3rd party cable providers such as Belkin.

A regular substandard cable is around 30x cheaper than an 3rd party cable provider. But why is it so big? Recently Belkin Philippines together with MacPower Marketing Corporation held an event to explain why you should invest on the right cable.

1. Certifications

Believe it or not Belkin applies for every local government certification in regards to Cables when bringing a product. Sometimes different types of cables have different certificates and that leads to more cost. Not to mention the unbelivable red tape here in the Philippines, Belkin admitted that its the reason why some of their products are not available in the Philippines since the cost of the certificates are not valid to bring in the product.

2. Own Manufacturing Plant

Compared to other companies where they just manufacture from 3rd party providers, Belkin actually design and produce their own cables in China. Yes you heard it right…China, but don’t worry they highlighted that they have all the international standard and manufacturing rights to create world class cables.

3. Proper Materials and Stringent Testing

Who would have though cables have actual testing! Belkin showed that inside the cables should have proper isolation. (Sorry guys, photos are not available since its not available for sharing). Plus the head of the cables should able to withstand being bent, definitely a good test for people always bumping their cables.

4. Faster Data Transfer

Belkin Highlighted that not all cables are the same, they aim to provide the standard speed or even higher than standard when it comes to data transfer. They highlighted that some manufacturer sacrifices on this portion just for profits.

5. No Radiation

Car Chargers are now also available in the lineup of Belkin, they highlighted that some chargers emits radiation signals that disturbs your device. A reason why sometimes when a phone connected to a charge and speaker system emits a hissing sound.

6. Php100,000 Protection Guarantee

By any chance a Belkin Accessory lead to destroy a device, Belkin will investigate and will refund up to Php100,000 depending on the current market value of your device. A great peace of mind thing to have, though we hope you don’t have to experience it.

Overall we now understand that not only Belkin is a good cable accessory provider brand, but also cares about their customers through their stringent processes. It’s definitely a good investment to have since you don’t have to worry much about your cables breaking down frequently, hopefully more people are aware of the risks in using substandard cables. If you are convinced with Belkin, you can also purchase all their products via Lazada.com.ph for convenient purchasing.
