Thunderbolt 5 USB-C cable for high-speed workflows

This Thunderbolt 5 USB-C cable delivers 80 Gbps data transfer and 240W charging for demanding creative and professional tasks. It suits users moving large media files between SSDs, docks and laptops who need maximum throughput. The 4.9 ft length fits typical desk or studio arrangements. Backward compatibility covers earlier Thunderbolt and USB-C 3.2, 3.1 and 2.0 devices.

Check host port capabilities before ordering

Verify that your USB-C port supports DisplayPort Alternate Mode if you plan to drive a 16K@60Hz or dual 8K@60Hz display. The cable’s 80 Gbps bandwidth and 240W power delivery require a host controller rated for those speeds and power levels. Older USB-C ports limited to 100W or lower data rates will not utilise the full specification. Ensure your laptop, dock or hub lists Thunderbolt 5 or USB4 80 Gbps support.

Premium build with reversible USB-C connectors

The cable uses USB-C to USB-C connectors that insert either way up, reducing wear during frequent docking and undocking. Rated for 240W charging, the conductors and shielding handle sustained high current without overheating. Robust strain relief at both ends protects the internal wiring during daily transport in a laptop bag. The 4.9 ft length keeps workstations tidy while allowing comfortable device placement.

Questions about this item

What comes with the SMUGDESK Thunderbolt 5 cable and is a power adapter included?

The package contains the USB-C to USB-C cable only; a power adapter is not included and must be supplied separately.

Should I choose the 1.6 ft or 4.9 ft version for a desktop docking setup?

The 4.9 ft length gives enough reach for a typical desk-to-dock connection, while the 1.6 ft version is better suited for very tight spaces.

Will the 80 Gbps rating deliver that speed when I plug the cable into my laptop and SSD?

The 80 Gbps throughput is only achieved when both the host port and the storage device support Thunderbolt 5 or USB4 80 Gbps; otherwise the link falls back to the highest mutually supported speed.
