What this cable does

The SMUGDESK USB4 cable carries 40 Gbps data, up to 240 W power and video signals through a single USB-C connector. It is built for Thunderbolt 4 and Thunderbolt 3 hosts and devices, and falls back to USB 3.2, 3.1 and 2.0 speeds when connected to older ports.

How it fits a setup

At 1.5 ft the cable links a laptop or desktop to a dock, hub or high-speed storage without adding clutter. It delivers enough power for demanding notebooks and drives one 8K 60 Hz or 5K 60 Hz display, or two 4K 60 Hz screens, provided the host USB-C port supports DisplayPort Alt Mode.

Who should buy it

Creators and professionals who need maximum throughput, high-watt charging and multi-monitor video from one short cable will benefit. Buyers who only charge phones or transfer small files, or who need a longer reach than 1.5 ft, should look at simpler or longer alternatives.
