One Cable for All Devices

This USB4 cable links laptops, phones, tablets and SSDs with a single USB-C connection. It delivers up to 40Gbps bandwidth, 8K video and 240W charging for creators and professionals who need one cable for every desk setup.

Sustained Transfer and Power

The cable maintains 40Gbps data rates during long SSD backups or eGPU sessions without throttling. PD 3.1 EPR keeps 48V at 240W, 36V at 180W or 28V at 140W stable through extended charging cycles so a MacBook Pro 16 reaches 60 percent battery in 30 minutes.

USB4 Interface Limits

USB4 tops out at 40Gbps, so 20Gbps devices run at half the peak bandwidth. DP Alt Mode caps video at one 8K 60Hz stream or dual 4K 60Hz streams. Thunderbolt 3 and 4 hosts work but cannot exceed the USB4 ceiling.

Questions about this item

Will the cable get warm or draw extra power when I run a 40Gbps SSD enclosure all day?

The cable is rated for 40Gbps data and 240W PD3.1 EPR, so it handles sustained high-speed transfers and charging without overheating under normal use.

My laptop only has a USB-C port — do I need a separate adapter or dock to use this cable?

No adapter is required; the cable has USB-C connectors on both ends and plugs directly into any USB-C host that supports USB4, Thunderbolt 3 or Thunderbolt 4.

I still use a Thunderbolt 3 dock and a USB 3.2 Gen2 SSD — will this cable work at full speed with them?

Yes, the cable is backward compatible with Thunderbolt 3, USB 3.2 and USB 2.0, so it will run your dock and SSD at their native speeds.
