Certified Thunderbolt 4 Cable 5 ft

This Thunderbolt 4 cable connects laptops, tablets and phones with USB-C ports to docks, monitors and chargers. It is Intel certified and supports the full Thunderbolt 4 feature set for professionals who need one cable for data, video and power.

Practical limits of Thunderbolt 4

The cable delivers up to 40 Gbps data throughput and drives a single display at 8K 60 Hz or 4K 144 Hz, plus dual 4K monitors when two cables are used. It carries up to 240 W (48 V / 5 A) of power, so actual charging speed depends on the charger and device capabilities.

What this replaces and when to upgrade

It replaces slower USB-C cables that max out at 10 Gbps or lower power delivery, removing the need for separate data and charging leads. The jump is worth it when you need 40 Gbps transfer rates, 8K video output or 240 W charging in a single 5 ft cable.

Questions about this item

Should I pick the 5 ft length or look for a longer cable for my desk setup?

The cable is supplied at 5 ft, which suits most desktop-to-monitor or laptop-to-dock runs without excess slack.

What does the 40 Gbps rating actually deliver when I copy large video files?

Real-world sequential throughput reaches up to 2.8 GB/s read and 2.1 GB/s write, so a 2.5 GB file moves in about one second.

How does the Thunderbolt certification affect what I can plug into this cable?

Intel Thunderbolt certification guarantees 40 Gbps data, 8K at 60 Hz or dual 4K at 144 Hz video, and up to 240 W (48 V / 5 A) charging with compatible hosts.
