USB 2.0 Type-C cable for power and data

This 2 metre USB 2.0 cable connects two USB-C devices for charging and data transfer. It supports up to 100W Power Delivery with a 5A current rating. The cable is USB-IF certified and works with Thunderbolt 3 ports. Nickel-plated connectors and foil-and-braid shielding ensure a reliable connection.

Data limited to USB 2.0 speeds

The cable carries data at 480 Mbit/s, which is the maximum rate of the USB 2.0 standard. It will not deliver the higher throughput of USB 3.1 or USB 4 connections. Video output is not supported over this cable. Buyers who need faster file transfers or display signals should choose a cable rated for a newer USB generation.

100W Power Delivery decides suitability

The single specification that determines whether this cable fits the task is its 100W power capability. If the laptop or charger requires more than 100W, this cable cannot supply enough power. For devices that draw 100W or less, the 5A rating and USB-IF certification make it a suitable choice.
