FAQs

Can I use this cable to charge my MacBook?

Yes, it supports up to 100W PD, which is sufficient for most USB-C laptops, including MacBooks.

Is this cable backwards compatible?

Yes, it is backwards compatible with older USB standards, though speeds will be limited by the older hardware.

Does this cable support Thunderbolt 3 or 4?

While it functions as a USB-C cable, it is built for USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 standards; it may not support the full bandwidth or proprietary features of Thunderbolt protocols.

Will this cable transmit audio?

Yes, when connected to a display or audio interface that supports USB-C audio transmission, it will carry audio signals.

Is the cable shielded?

The cable is built to high standards for signal integrity, which includes internal shielding to prevent interference during high-speed data transfers.

Troubleshooting

No video signal on external monitor

Verify that your computer's USB-C port supports DisplayPort Alternate Mode (DP Alt Mode) and that the monitor input is set correctly.

Slow charging speed

Ensure your wall charger and the target device both support USB Power Delivery (PD). Check that the cable is firmly seated in both ends.

Data transfer speed is lower than expected

Confirm that both your host device and your storage peripheral support USB 3.2 Gen 2x2. Older USB 3.0 or 2.0 ports will bottleneck the connection.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Supports high-speed 20Gbps data transfers
  • Handles up to 100W of power for fast laptop charging
  • Enables reliable 4K 60Hz video output
  • Sturdy construction with a premium soft-touch TPE finish
  • Highly versatile for data, power, and display needs

Cons

  • 1.5m length may be restrictive for some workstation layouts
  • Compatibility is limited by the host device's own port specifications
  • Performance is dependent on device support for USB 3.2 Gen 2x2

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure optimal performance, verify that both the transmitting device (e.g., laptop) and the receiving device (e.g., monitor or docking station) are compatible with the specific standards supported by the cable.

  1. Setup: Simply insert the USB-C connectors into the respective ports on your devices. The connection is reversible, meaning orientation does not matter.
  2. Compatibility: While USB-C is a universal connector, always check your device manual to ensure the port supports 'DisplayPort Alternate Mode' for video and the required wattage for PD charging.
  3. Care: Keep the cable away from sharp edges and avoid excessive bending at the connector joints. When cleaning, use a dry or slightly damp lint-free cloth. Do not use chemical solvents on the TPE jacket.
