USB-C 3.1 Gen 2 cable for data and charging

This one-metre cable connects two USB-C devices with a male-to-male layout. It carries USB 3.1 Gen 2 signals at up to 10 Gbps and supplies up to 5 A for fast charging. The reversible connectors remove orientation hassle. It suits phones, tablets, laptops and consoles that use USB-C ports.

Passive thermals and power delivery

The cable has no active cooling and generates no audible noise during normal use. Its 30 AWG conductors handle the rated 5 A current without external power. Heat stays low because the assembly is fully passive and unshielded beyond the standard jacket. Voltage drop remains within USB specification for the given length.

Sustained load behaviour

Under continuous 10 Gbps transfers the cable maintains signal integrity without throttling. Extended 5 A charging sessions do not cause connector overheating or insulation stress. The fixed 1 m length limits voltage drop, so performance stays stable for the duration of large file moves or long charging cycles.

Questions about this item

How do I plug in the reversible USB-C connectors without forcing them?

Align the oval-shaped USB-C plug with the port on each device and insert gently; the reversible design means either orientation works, so no force is needed.

Will the 30 AWG conductors degrade over time with daily 5 A charging?

The 30 AWG wiring is rated for the cable’s 5 A maximum; normal daily use within that limit does not require scheduled replacement.

At what point does the 10 Gbps data rate drop during a long file transfer?

Sustained transfers stay at 10 Gbps as long as both host and device support USB 3.1 Gen 2 and the 1 m length is not exceeded.
