USB-C to USB-C cable for laptops and phones

This six-foot USB Type-C to Type-C cable connects two USB-C devices such as a laptop to a docking station, a smartphone to a wall charger or a hard drive to a computer. It is compatible with any device featuring a USB-C or Thunderbolt 3 port including MacBooks, Ultrabooks and Chromebooks. The reversible connectors plug in either direction for a fumble-free connection every time.

Data and power delivery up to 5 Gbps and 3 amps

The cable supports USB 3.1 Gen 1 data transfer rates up to 5 Gbps, which is 10 times faster than USB 2.0. It also provides power output up to 3 amps (60 watts) for charging, syncing and powering compatible devices. Backward compatibility with previous USB generations allows use with older equipment.

6 ft length and Thunderbolt 3 support decide fit

The six-foot length determines reach between devices on a desk or across a workspace. Thunderbolt 3 compatibility ensures the cable works with high-speed docks and peripherals that require that protocol. Buyers who need a longer run or a cable rated for higher data speeds should look elsewhere.

Questions about this item

Will the reversible USB-C connectors wear out from repeated daily plugging?

The reversible USB-C male connectors are designed for fumble-free insertion in either direction, reducing mechanical stress compared with single-orientation plugs.

At 5 Gbps, does sustained large-file transfer hit a thermal or protocol ceiling first?

USB 3.1 Gen 1 tops out at 5 Gbps, so the protocol ceiling is reached before any thermal limit during continuous transfers.

Does the 3 A rating mean the cable runs warm when charging a laptop all day?

The cable supports up to 3 amps (60 watts) Power Delivery, which is within specification for all-day charging without excessive heat.
