sync cable
Device linking cord
A sync cable connects electronic devices to transfer data or synchronize content between them.
Originally associated with portable music players and early smartphones that needed physical connections to computers for updates and file transfers: I lost my sync cable and can't back up my phone.
Now often synonymous with charging cable, since most serve both functions.
