USB4 cable for high-speed data and 240 W power

This 1.6 ft USB-C to USB-C cable carries the USB4 specification and moves files at up to 40 Gbps. It delivers up to 240 W of USB Power Delivery at 48 V 5 A and drives an external display at 8K resolution and 60 Hz or 4K at 144 Hz. Lab testing shows the cable survives 5,000 bend cycles.

For users who need maximum USB4 bandwidth

Creative professionals moving large media libraries and developers using fast external SSDs or eGPU enclosures will benefit from the 40 Gbps link and 240 W charge capability. Buyers whose devices only support lower USB speeds or lesser power profiles will not gain the rated throughput or charging rate.

Deciding specification: 40 Gbps USB4 data rate

The single figure that determines whether this cable matches the requirement is the 40 Gbps USB4 transfer speed. If the host, peripheral and any dock all operate at this rate the link will deliver full SSD bandwidth and 8K@60Hz video; a slower USB generation will limit both data and display performance.

Questions about this item

Does the 240 W rating cause the 1.6 ft cable to get warm during long charging sessions?

The cable is rated for 48 V at 5 A to deliver up to 240 W, and the supplier notes it passed lab testing for 5,000 bends, indicating robust construction for sustained high-power use.

My charger and laptop must both support USB Power Delivery at 48 V 5 A to reach 240 W, correct?

Yes, the 240 W maximum requires a compatible charger and device that can negotiate 48 V at 5 A over USB Power Delivery.

Will the 40 Gbps data rate work when I connect this cable to my older USB 3.1 Gen 2 laptop port?

The cable supports 40 Gbps USB4 speeds, but the actual transfer rate will be limited to the capabilities of the older port you are using.
