    There is nothing to tell apart. They are the same cable.

    There is no difference between the two cables. The serial number, if I'm understanding you correctly, was something that was just added a little while back as a way to help identify counterfeit cables. There is no real difference between the two, as Apple does not use them to identify different models.

     

    I'm not sure what you are referring to with flexcorp/salcomp adapter. What is that exactly?
