What it is
Summary
AI-generated from vendor-published content · June 11, 2026
This is the replacement charging/data cord for the Monarch, APH's refreshable braille and tactile graphics display designed for students and adults who are blind or have low vision. The Monarch is a multiline braille device that also renders tactile graphics — losing or damaging its proprietary cord renders the device unchargeable and potentially unusable, making this a critical consumable. This is purely an accessory; you must already own a Monarch to have any use for it. At nearly $60, the cord is priced at the premium end for a cable, which is worth noting before purchasing a general-purpose replacement elsewhere.
