But even then, these devices are relatively useless unless they are paired with another piece of Apple hardware: a proprietary USB cable called Kanzi. These cables, which can sell for up to $2,000.

A Normal Kanzi Cable

The Kanzi Cable is a JTAG/SWD Cable capable of debugging CPFM 00 or 01 devices (EVT and DVT devices) which have the Lighting port, using software called Astris. It can be connected to another SWD debugger, using the SWD port, and it can also do UART/Serial. They can be purchased from obscure markets. There are two known types of the Kanzi cable. The normal version and a prototype version with PROTO etched to it.

Uses

Dumping the SecureROM

One use of the cable is dumping the SecureROM from devices. This can be done using commands such as this one.

Annotated photo of the original Alex DCSD PCB

The DCSD Alex cable is used in factories to communicate over serial to run tests and write to the SysCfg (for serial definitions, etc) during production. These cables are produced by ShenZhen Alex Connector Co., Ltd. in China. They can be purchased from obscure markets. There are two known types of DCSD cable. An older one, with lights and only one USB female USB connector, and a newer model, which lacks lights, and has two female USB connectors.

'DCSD 3.1' PCB

This cable is made specifically for USB-C devices such as the newer models in the iPad Pro line, this cable also supports USB 3.1.USB connection from the main board splits out into a Y-style cable but turns back into one connection in the USB-A male connector .

Back of the board items of interest

There's not much on the back of the board that you couldn't technically see from the front, no ICs or anything of interest really. Turn off or change notifications and sounds in outlook for mac.

Other notes

  • The Lightning Connector has a specific Accessory ID flashed to it for enabling serial via the Tristar chip.
  • This PCB is quite easy to replicate, but without the proper Accessory ID you will need to mimic the protocol similar to how key2fr did in his research.
  • In theory, you can use the Tristar for JTAG through a similar board, but JTAG gets disabled by the device during boot due to production fusing status.
  • In USB-C capable Macs Apple takes care to note the low speed USB2 pins on the TOP or BOTTOM of the connector (which are usually identical to support passive USB-C <-> USB-A cables). This suggests that these pairs may be treated differently just like how the lightning DCSD cable had a proper TOP and BOTTOM side, which would provide a second USB device on the same plug.

Uses

Verbose Boot

Sale

One use of the cable was to view verbose boot. You could access this by setting debug uarts in iRecovery or nvram, however, since iOS 9, this output has been obfuscated.

Shell over serial

Using qwertyoruiopz'sserialsh, it is possible to get shell over serial. This is useful, because it does not require any additional daemons other than those shipped with iOS. An example use case for this would be protecting against bootloops.

Debugging the kernel

Using the DCSD cable, it is possible to attach GDB to the iOS kernel, and pause it's running.
