Six connections for a more organised charging desk
Who it suits
It suits a fixed workstation where you switch between a USB-C laptop, phone, tablet and accessories. Six connections share one mains-powered station, reducing the need for separate adapters across the desk. Four USB-C ports let you reserve two connections for laptops that support USB Power Delivery; two USB-A ports accommodate accessories that still use that connector. It does not store energy: this is a mains charger, not a portable battery.
The key limit: shared power
200W is the combined maximum, not the output of every port. Anker specifies up to 100W from an individual USB-C port and up to 100 + 100W with two compatible USB-C devices. With two, three or four ports connected, combined output reaches up to 200W; with five or six, up to 199W. Allocation depends on the selected ports and the power each device requests. Each USB-A port supplies up to 22.5W with compatible protocols. Do not assume every device will charge at its maximum speed simultaneously.
Check your laptop and cables
Check that your laptop supports USB-C PD charging and how much power it needs. For 100W over USB-C, Anker requires a 5A E-Marker cable as well as a compatible device. A 3A cable or a device requesting less power limits delivery. A USB-C connector alone does not establish that a laptop accepts charging through that port. USB charging cables are not listed among this offer’s included components.
Installation and box contents
The A2683 connects to mains power using the included C7 AC cord, approximately 1.5m (5ft) long. Official input is 100–240V, 50–60Hz, 3.2–2.5A. This manufacturer specification takes precedence over Amazon’s 16A table entry. Voltage compatibility does not establish that the physical plug fits every country: check the offer’s cord and your destination socket before installation.
The body measures 112 × 76 × 35mm and weighs 563g without the AC cord. It is plastic with a metallic-looking coating; the silver colour does not imply an aluminium enclosure. This A2683 version has no LCD or control dial. Anker lists the charger, AC cord and welcome guide in the box; the 24-month warranty is subject to terms and region. We do not add chargers, USB cables or accessories merely because they appear in third-party images.

200W A2683 versus the 250W Prime A2345
These are different mains charging stations. The A2345 adds a display and dial, and its first USB-C port can reach 140W with compatible PD 3.1 EPR equipment and a suitable cable. The A2683 is simpler if fixed connections and up to 100W per USB-C meet your needs. Compare the power your laptop actually requests before choosing the larger number.
