What the cable does

This SMUGDESK USB 4.0 cable delivers up to 240W of power and 40Gbps data bandwidth over a 1.5ft length. It supports Thunderbolt 3 and 4 connections, single 8K@60Hz or dual 4K@60Hz video output, and works with any USB-C device, hub, eGPU or gaming PC.

Who it suits and who it does not

The short 1.5ft reach suits desktop setups where the host and peripheral sit side by side, such as an eGPU dock or monitor on the same desk. Buyers who need to span a longer distance between devices should look at a longer cable.

Installation and common issues

Simply plug the USB-C connectors into both ports; no drivers or configuration are required. The most common issue is reduced speed when the host port only supports 20Gbps Gen2 bandwidth instead of the full 40Gbps Gen3 capability.

Questions about this item

What charger and device must I already own to get 240W charging?

You need a USB-C charger rated for 48V/5A and a device that accepts 240W USB Power Delivery; the cable simply passes that power through.

Will this cable work with my Thunderbolt 3 dock and older USB-C laptop?

Yes, it is compatible with Thunderbolt 3 and 4, so it will carry data, video and power to legacy Thunderbolt 3 or standard USB-C hosts.

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

Run a large file transfer between two Gen3-capable ports; sustained speeds approaching 40Gbps confirm the link is operating at full bandwidth.
