One Cable for Every USB-C Device
This five-foot USB4 cable carries up to 240W of power and 40Gbps of data, so a single lead can charge phones, tablets and gaming laptops while also driving an 8K display. It works with any USB-C port, from the smallest accessory to the most power-hungry notebook.
Bandwidth and Power Depend on the Port
The cable is rated for 40Gbps Gen3 speeds, yet a Gen2 port will limit transfers to 20Gbps. Likewise, 240W charging at 48V/5A only occurs when both the charger and the device support PD 3.1; lesser adapters at 170W, 140W, 120W, 100W, 65W or 18W will negotiate their own lower profiles.
Simple Plug-and-Play With One Common Pitfall
Both ends are standard USB-C, so installation is a matter of connecting the two devices — no drivers or orientation fuss. The usual mistake is expecting 40Gbps or 240W from a port that only speaks Gen2 or an older PD revision, which the cable cannot override.

Questions about this item
Should I choose this 5 ft cable or a different length for my desk setup?
This model is supplied at 5 ft. If you need a longer or shorter reach, check whether the shop stocks other lengths of the same 40 Gbps, 240 W specification.
What does the 40 Gbps rating mean when I copy files between my laptop and an external SSD?
You can reach up to 40 Gbps with a USB4 Gen3 port, or up to 20 Gbps with a Gen2 port. The cable itself does not limit the speed below those ceilings.
Does the USB4 interface cap the 240 W charging or 8K video in any way?
The cable supports the full USB4 40 Gbps bandwidth, 240 W (48 V / 5 A) power delivery and 8K at 60 Hz or dual 4K at 60 Hz simultaneously.
