Thunderbolt 3 cable for high-speed workflows

This Belkin Thunderbolt 3 USB-C cable is built for professionals who move large files between Thunderbolt 3 devices. It delivers up to 20 Gbps data transfer and 60 W power delivery in a 3 ft length. The copper construction connects two USB-C ports and supports a 4K or Ultra HD display.

Suits Thunderbolt 3 users.

The cable suits users who need certified Thunderbolt 3 performance for docks, drives and displays. It is not for buyers who only have USB 3.1 or USB 3.0 hosts, because those connections drop to 10 Gbps or 5 Gbps respectively. It also does not suit anyone needing a longer reach than 3 ft.

Fits between two USB-C ports; frees a power brick

Plug the male USB-C connectors into a host and a Thunderbolt 3 peripheral, dock or 4K display. The 60 W charging capability can power a compatible laptop, removing the need for a separate power adapter. The 24-pin design carries data, video and power simultaneously.

Questions about this item

Do I need both of my devices to have Thunderbolt 3 ports to use this cable?

Yes, to reach the 20 Gbps rate both ends must be Thunderbolt 3; with USB 3.1 devices the link runs at 10 Gbps and with USB 3.0 it drops to 5 Gbps.

Will this cable charge a laptop that only accepts USB Power Delivery over USB-C?

It delivers up to 60 W, which matches the USB PD profile used by many Thunderbolt 3 and USB-C laptops.

How can I confirm the cable is running at the full 20 Gbps after I plug it in?

On macOS open System Information and check the Thunderbolt tree for a 20 Gbps link speed; on Windows use Thunderbolt Control Center to verify the active link rate.
