GearMo USB-C 1 ft cable

The GearMo GM-C2C5GB-1FT is a USB-C male to USB-C male cable built to USB 3.1 Gen1 specifications. It supports data transfer up to 5 Gbps and delivers up to 3 A of power. The reversible 24-pin connectors work with any USB Type-C port. Its 12-inch length keeps close connections tidy.

Suits short-range links

This cable suits users who need a short link between a laptop and a dock, drive or peripheral. It is not for setups that require a longer reach across a desk or between rooms. Builders needing higher data rates or greater power delivery should look at a different specification.

USB 3.1 Gen1 5 Gbps rating

The single specification that decides fit is the USB 3.1 Gen1 rating with a 5 Gbps data ceiling. If your devices and workflow operate within that bandwidth, the cable will perform as intended. If the connection demands a faster generation, this part will limit throughput.

Questions about this item

Will the 5 Gbps headline speed actually appear when I plug this cable into my laptop and drive?

The cable is built to the USB 3.1 Gen1 specification, so it can carry up to 5 Gbps between two ports that also support that generation; the real throughput will match the slower end of the link.

What does the USB 3.1 Gen1 label on this cable mean for the data rate I can expect?

USB 3.1 Gen1 defines a 5 Gbps signalling rate, and this cable meets that spec, so it will not bottleneck a Gen1 connection; any higher-speed port will simply fall back to this ceiling.

Does the 1 ft length and 24-pin reversible connector let me plug it into any USB-C port without worrying about orientation?

Yes, the 12-inch cable uses the standard 24-pin USB-C plug that inserts either way up, so it fits every USB-C receptacle regardless of how you hold it.
