Monoprice USB4 40Gbps cable for power and data

This 1.5ft cable carries up to 240 W with USB Power Delivery 3.1 Extended Power Range and moves data at 40 Gbps. It suits users who charge high‑power laptops or docks while transferring large media files. The braided jacket resists tangling during daily desk or travel use. It is not for buyers who need longer reach or legacy USB‑A connectors.

Capacity and headroom at 40 Gbps and 240 W

The link handles 8K HDR video streams and sustained bulk transfers without throttling. Backward compatibility covers Thunderbolt 3 and 4, USB 3.2 and USB 2.0 hosts and devices. Bandwidth runs out when the host or peripheral cannot signal at the full USB4 rate, and power delivery stops at the negotiated EPR limit. It does not serve setups that require more than 240 W or active optical reach.

USB‑IF certification and braided build

USB‑IF certification confirms compliance with the USB4 specification for reliable interoperability across certified hosts, docks and displays. The braided jacket adds mechanical durability and reduces cable memory compared with plain PVC. These two factors together mean consistent signal integrity and physical longevity in frequent connect‑disconnect cycles. No software bundle or driver is included.

Questions about this item

Will this cable work with my Thunderbolt 3 dock and older USB 2.0 peripherals?

Yes, the cable is backward compatible with Thunderbolt 3 and 4, USB 3.2, and USB 2.0 devices, so it will connect your existing dock and legacy peripherals at their native speeds.

How can I verify the cable is delivering 40 Gbps and 240 W after I plug it in?

Check your host system's USB controller details or power delivery negotiation readout; they should report a 40 Gbps link rate and a 240 W power contract when connected to compatible hardware.

Does the 1.5 ft braided cable include any adapters or do I need to buy them separately?

The box contains only the USB4 cable with USB-C connectors on both ends; any adapters for other port types must be purchased separately.
