Extended Product Information

FAQs

What is the maximum power this cable can support?

This cable supports up to 240W using the USB Power Delivery 3.1 Extended Power Range (EPR) standard.

Is this cable suitable for fast data transfer?

No, this cable is optimized for charging and supports USB 2.0 data transfer speeds (480Mb/s). For faster data transfer, you would need a USB 3.0 or higher rated cable.

How do I know if my device and charger are compatible with 240W charging?

Look for specifications indicating support for USB Power Delivery 3.1 (PD 3.1) and Extended Power Range (EPR). Devices and chargers that explicitly state '240W' or '5A' support are compatible.

Can I use this cable with devices that only support lower PD versions?

Yes, the cable is backward compatible. However, it will only charge at the maximum power level supported by both the charger and the device, which may be lower than 240W.

What does USB-IF certified mean?

USB-IF certification means the cable has been tested and verified by the USB Implementers Forum to meet specific performance and safety standards, ensuring reliable operation and compatibility.

What is the warranty on this cable?

This product comes with a StarTech.com lifetime limited manufacturer warranty.

Can this cable be used for video output (DisplayPort Alternate Mode)?

No, this USB 2.0 cable does not support USB Type-C DisplayPort Alternate Mode for video output.

Troubleshooting

Device is not charging or charging slowly.

Ensure both the charger and the device support USB Power Delivery 3.1 (EPR) up to 240W. Verify the cable is fully seated in both ports. Try a different USB-C PD charger and device to isolate the issue.

Cable feels warm during charging.

Some warmth is normal during high-power charging (up to 240W). If the cable becomes excessively hot, disconnect immediately and check for proper connection and device compatibility. Ensure the charger is adequate for the device's power draw.

Data transfer is not working or is very slow.

This cable is designed primarily for charging and supports USB 2.0 data transfer speeds (480Mb/s). For high-speed data transfer, a USB 3.0 or higher rated cable is required.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Supports the latest 240W PD 3.1 EPR standard for maximum charging speed.
  • USB-IF certification guarantees compatibility and safety.
  • The 4-meter length offers excellent flexibility for various setups.
  • Durable construction with TPE jacket and robust connectors for longevity.
  • Clearly marked connectors reduce the risk of using an incompatible cable.

Cons

  • Data transfer speeds are limited to USB 2.0 (480Mb/s), not suitable for high-speed data synchronization.
  • Only compatible with USB-C Power Delivery 3.1 (EPR) enabled devices and chargers for full functionality.
  • White color may show dirt more easily than darker cables.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: Simply connect the USB-C ends of the cable to your compatible USB-C power source (charger, power bank) and your USB-C device (laptop, tablet). Ensure both the device and the charger support USB Power Delivery 3.1 (EPR) for optimal performance.

Compatibility: This cable is designed for USB-C devices and chargers that support USB Power Delivery 3.1 (EPR) up to 240W. It is also backward compatible with lower PD versions, but will only charge at the maximum rate supported by all connected components. Data transfer is limited to USB 2.0 speeds.

Care: Keep the connectors clean and free from debris. Avoid tightly coiling the cable to prevent damage to the internal conductors. Clean the cable jacket with a slightly damp cloth if necessary; do not use harsh chemicals. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
