SKU CH-63P9-81JFJ

A 5 ft braided USB-C cable delivering 40 Gbps data, 240 W charging and single 8K or dual 4K@60 Hz video

Cable Length 5 Feet

  • 40 Gbps transfer speed moves large files in seconds
  • 240 W charging powers laptops and phones rapidly
  • Single 8K or dual 4K display output at 60 Hz
  • Works with thunderbolt 3 and 4 hosts and peripherals
  • Backward compatible with USB 3.2, 3.1 and 2.0 devices

What this cable delivers

The SMUGDESK USB4 braided cable connects USB-C devices at 40 Gbps, carries up to 240 W of power, and drives a single 8K display or dual 4K displays at 60 Hz. It works with Thunderbolt 4 and Thunderbolt 3 hosts and remains compatible with USB 3.2, USB 3.1 and USB 2.0 devices.

Who benefits and who should look elsewhere

Creative professionals moving large media files between high-speed storage and a laptop gain the full bandwidth and charging headroom. Users whose hardware lacks DisplayPort Alternate Mode over USB-C will not get video output, and anyone needing longer reach than the supplied length must choose a different cable.

Behaviour under sustained load

The 40 Gbps link and 240 W power rating are maintained continuously thanks to the braided construction and certified USB4 signalling. Daisy-chaining up to six Thunderbolt 3 devices such as docks, drives or eGPUs does not reduce the available throughput for the remaining ports.

Questions about this item

Does my laptop need a Thunderbolt 4 or USB4 port to get the full 40 Gbps and 240 W from this cable?

Yes — the host must provide a Thunderbolt 4 or USB4 Type-C port that supports 40 Gbps data and 240 W Power Delivery; older USB 3.2, 3.1 or 2.0 ports will fall back to their own lower speeds and power limits.

Will the cable still charge and move files if I plug it into my older USB 3.2 Gen 2 laptop and a Thunderbolt 3 dock?

It works at USB 3.2 10 Gbps and up to 100 W charging because the cable is backward compatible with USB 3.2, 3.1 and 2.0, while the Thunderbolt 3 dock negotiates its own link rate.

How can I confirm the link is running at 40 Gbps and delivering 240 W after I connect everything?

Check the OS connection details — macOS System Report or Windows Device Manager should list a 40 Gbps link width and the power meter should show up to 240 W negotiated over USB Power Delivery.
