A 1.6 ft Thunderbolt cable delivers 240 W charging, 80 Gbps data transfer and 16K@60 Hz video for USB-C devices

Cable Length 1.6 Feet

  • 240W power delivery charges laptops rapidly
  • 80Gbps bi-directional bandwidth moves large files fast
  • 16K@60Hz resolution supports ultra-high-definition displays
  • 6ft length suits compact desk setups
  • Backward compatible with Thunderbolt 4 and 3 devices

What this cable does

The SMUGDESK Thunderbolt 5 cable carries up to 240W of power and 80Gbps of data over a 1.6ft USB-C link. It also drives a single 16K display at 60Hz or dual 8K monitors using two cables. The wire is built to the USB4 V2 and DisplayPort 2.1 specifications.

Who should use it and who should not

Creators and professionals who need maximum charging speed, 80Gbps throughput, or 16K video on Thunderbolt 5 or USB4 hosts will benefit. Buyers whose devices only support USB 3.2 or Thunderbolt 3 cannot reach these speeds or power levels and should consider a simpler cable.

The specification that decides fit

The cable delivers 80Gbps bi-directional bandwidth with a Bandwidth Boost option up to 120Gbps for display traffic. If your host and peripheral both support this throughput the link will perform at its rated ceiling; otherwise it falls back to the lowest common standard.

Questions about this item

Do I need a Thunderbolt 5 host port to use the 240W charging and 80Gbps data features?

Yes, both the host and the connected device must support Thunderbolt 5 to deliver 240W at 48V/5A and reach the 80Gbps bi-directional rate; the cable itself is passive and only carries what the endpoints negotiate.

Will this cable work at reduced speeds with my older Thunderbolt 3 dock and USB 3.2 Gen 2 SSD?

The cable is fully backward compatible with Thunderbolt 3, USB 3.2 Gen 2 and earlier USB 3.x standards, so the dock and SSD will operate at their native speeds without any configuration.

How can I verify the link is running at 80Gbps and driving a 16K@60Hz display after I plug it in?

On macOS open System Report and check the Thunderbolt section for a link speed of 80Gbps; on Windows use Intel Thunderbolt Control Center to confirm the active bandwidth and the connected monitor's reported 16K@60Hz mode.
