SMUGDESK USB4 Cable 1.6ft 40Gbps 240W 8K Braided

SKU CH-ZDY7-RQW0J

A 1.6 ft braided USB4 cable delivering 40 Gbps data, 8K 60 Hz video and up to 240 W charging for USB-C devices

Cable Length 1.6 Feet

  • Charges devices up to 240 W with compatible charger
  • Transfers data at up to 40 Gbps over USB4
  • Drives single 8K 60 Hz or dual 4K 60 Hz displays
  • Braided 1.6 ft cable built for daily durability
  • Works with Thunderbolt 3 and 4 hosts

What this cable does

This 1.6ft USB-C to USB-C cable carries 40Gbps data, 240W power and 8K video over a single braided link. It is built for users who need the full USB4 bandwidth and power envelope in a short, tidy run.

Who it suits and who it does not

It suits creators moving large media files, professionals driving 8K or dual 4K displays and owners of high-wattage laptops that charge at 48V/5A. Buyers whose hosts or chargers only support lower data rates or power levels will not reach the headline figures.

The spec that decides fit

The cable delivers 40Gbps Gen3 bandwidth, 240W (48V/5A) charging and single 8K@60Hz or dual 4K@60Hz video when both ends support USB4 Gen3 and 240W PD. If either end is limited to Gen2 or a lower power profile, throughput and charging drop accordingly.

Highlights

  • Charges devices up to 240 W with compatible charger
  • Transfers data at up to 40 Gbps over USB4
  • Drives single 8K 60 Hz or dual 4K 60 Hz displays
  • Braided 1.6 ft cable built for daily durability

Questions about this item

Does the box include a charger or just the 1.6ft cable?

The package contains only the USB4 cable itself. A compatible USB-C charger capable of up to 240W (48V/5A) must be purchased separately to achieve the maximum charging rate.

When should I choose this 40Gbps cable over a 20Gbps version?

Select this cable when you need full 40Gbps bandwidth for single 8K@60Hz output, dual 4K@60Hz displays, or eGPU use. Ports limited to 20Gbps will not utilise the higher ceiling.

Will I actually see 40Gbps transfer speeds when copying files between my laptop and an external SSD?

Real-world throughput depends on the host port generation. A USB4 or Thunderbolt 3/4 port can reach 40Gbps, while a USB 3.2 Gen 2 port caps at 20Gbps, so the cable itself is not the bottleneck.
