USB4 40Gbps cable 31in 100W
The Tripp Lite U520-31N is a USB4 cable with male-to-male USB-C connectors, 31 inches long, rated for 40Gbps data and 100W power delivery. It supports Thunderbolt 3 and carries 8K60Hz video via DisplayPort Alt Mode. The black TPE jacket carries a VW-1 rating with nickel-plated shells and gold contacts.
Creative pros and Thunderbolt 3 users
This cable suits creators moving large video files between USB-C or Thunderbolt 3 laptops, docks and 8K displays at full 40Gbps bandwidth. It also charges high-powered laptops at 100W while streaming 8K or dual 4K60 video. Buyers needing longer runs for permanent installs or distances beyond 0.8m should look at active or optical alternatives.
40Gbps USB4 certification
The decisive spec is the USB4 40Gbps rating, which guarantees two-lane 40Gbps throughput, 8K60Hz video and 100W PD over the 31in length. Cables marked only for 20Gbps or USB 3.2 cannot deliver the same video and data headroom.

| Features | USB4 Cable Streams Video and Downloads Data at 40 Gbps, 8x Faster Than USB 3.0 This USB4 40Gbps cable (M/M) transmits across two bidirectional lanes, supporting speeds up to 40 Gbps, which is eight times faster than USB 3.0. Unlike previous USB generations, the USB4 40Gbps cable has the ability to allocate resources. Instead of splitting video and data equally between its two lanes, the U520-31N allows the connected display as much bandwidth as it needs, while saving all remaining bandwidth for high-speed data transfers. This makes the cable perfectly suited for 4K or 8K video stream |

Questions about this item
What clearance does the 31in cable need between two USB-C ports?
The 31in length provides 2.62 ft of reach between male USB-C connectors on each end.
How do you ensure the cable negotiates 40Gbps and 100W instead of falling back to a lower rate?
Connect both ends to USB4 or Thunderbolt 3 ports that support DisplayPort Alt Mode and PD 100W; the cable then uses its two bidirectional lanes for full bandwidth and power.
When should the cable be replaced if the jacket shows wear?
Replace it if the TPE jacket rated VW-1 is cut, abraded or the nickel-plated connectors become loose, as damage can interrupt 40Gbps data or 100W charging.
