Cable Length 1.5 Feet

  • 40 Gbps transfer moves large files in seconds
  • 240 W charging powers laptops and phones fast

  • 90 degree connector fits tight ports easily
  • Works with Thunderbolt 4 and USB 3.2 devices

What this cable does

The SMUGDESK USB4 cable connects two USB-C devices with a right-angle plug on one end. It carries up to 40 Gbps of data, delivers up to 240 W of power, and can drive an 8K display at 60 Hz or dual 4K displays at 60 Hz. Thunderbolt 3 and 4 hosts are supported along with earlier USB-C standards.

Who it suits and who it does not

Creative professionals moving large video files between Thunderbolt storage and a laptop will benefit from the full 40 Gbps bandwidth. Buyers who only need basic charging or 10 Gbps transfers will not use the extra headroom. The 1.5 ft length limits desk reach, so users needing a longer run should look elsewhere.

What the 90-degree plug changes

The right-angle connector reduces strain on the port and keeps the cable flush against the device, which helps in tight dock setups or when a laptop sits close to a monitor riser. It does not add any extra protocol support beyond the USB4 and Thunderbolt specifications already listed.

Questions about this item

Do I need a USB-C port that supports DisplayPort Alt Mode to get 8K@60Hz video?

Yes, the cable can drive 8K@60Hz or dual 4K@60Hz, but your USB-C source must support DisplayPort Alternate Mode for video output to work.

Will this cable deliver 40Gbps data speeds with my Thunderbolt 3 laptop?

The cable is backward compatible with Thunderbolt 3 devices, but 40Gbps transfer requires USB4 Gen3x2 or Thunderbolt 4 ports; Thunderbolt 3 ports will operate at their own rated speed.

How can I confirm the cable is providing 240W charging after I connect it?

Check the power readout on your charger or device — it should show up to 240W (or 180W, 140W, 100W, 60W, 45W) depending on what the source and sink negotiate.
