USB 2.0 Type-C cable, 2 m, 100 W

This white USB 2.0 cable connects two USB-C devices over a 2 metre length. It carries data at 480 Mbit/s and delivers up to 100 W of power at 5 A. Both ends are male 24-pin connectors with nickel plating. The jacket uses TPE and the shielding combines aluminum-Mylar foil with braid. It is USB-IF certified and compatible with Thunderbolt 3 ports.

Suited for charging laptops and phones.

Buyers who need to power a USB-C laptop, phone or tablet from a wall charger, car charger or docking station will find the 100 W rating sufficient. The 2 metre reach adds flexibility on a desk or in a vehicle. Users who require USB 3.0 or faster transfer rates for external SSDs or video capture should choose a cable rated for higher data speeds.

USB 2.0 data rate limits bulk transfers

The single specification that decides fit is the 480 Mbit/s USB 2.0 signal rate. It handles charging, syncing phones, peripherals and displays that operate within this bandwidth. Workflows moving large multi-gigabyte files between drives will be constrained by this ceiling, regardless of the host or device capabilities.

Questions about this item

What comes in the box and is a charger included?

The package contains the 2-metre USB-C to USB-C cable only; a USB-C power adapter must be purchased separately.

Why choose the 2-metre 100-watt version over a shorter cable?

The 2-metre length gives desk-to-outlet reach while still delivering the full 100-watt, 5-amp power rating for laptop charging.

What does the 480 Mbit/s speed mean when I plug this into my laptop?

Data transfers run at USB 2.0 rates, so file copies are slower than USB 3 or Thunderbolt, but 100-watt charging works at full speed.
