Short Thunderbolt 5 cable for high-speed workflows
This 1.6 ft Thunderbolt 5 cable delivers 80 Gbps data transfer and 240 W charging in a compact length. It suits creators and professionals who connect high-performance SSDs, docks or displays directly to a laptop or workstation. The short reach keeps a tidy desk while maintaining full bandwidth. Backward compatibility covers Thunderbolt 3 and 4 hosts plus USB 3.2, 3.1 and 2.0 devices.
Durable USB-C to USB-C build with Alt Mode video
The cable uses USB-C connectors on both ends and supports DisplayPort Alternate Mode for video output. It can drive one 16K display at 60 Hz or dual 8K displays at 60 Hz when the host port supports Alt Mode. Robust shielding and strain relief protect signal integrity during frequent plugging and unplugging. The 240 W power rating handles demanding laptops and bus-powered peripherals without a separate adapter.
Replaces older 60 W or 100 W cables when charging
If your current cable limits charging to 60 W or 100 W, this 240 W design removes that bottleneck for modern laptops. The 80 Gbps bandwidth upgrades transfers from earlier Thunderbolt or USB 3.2 links, cutting wait times for large media files. Buyers who need longer reach or who lack DisplayPort Alternate Mode on their USB-C port will not gain video support from this cable.
