Key Specifications

Reliable 10Gbps Data Transfer Over 5 Metres

The Lindy 5m Active USB 3.2 Gen 2 C/C Cable uses active electronics to maintain full 10Gbps transfer speeds across its entire 5-metre length. Unlike passive cables that degrade signal quality over distance, this active design ensures consistent performance for high-bandwidth applications such as external storage, docking stations, and media streaming without latency or dropouts.

DisplayPort 1.4 Alt Mode for Video Applications

Supporting DisplayPort 1.4 Alternate Mode, this cable can transmit 4K 60Hz video alongside data and power through a single USB-C connection. When DP 1.4 signals are active, USB data reduces to USB 2.0 speeds (480Mbps), but DP 1.2 mode maintains full 10Gbps data rates with 4K 60Hz support. This makes it perfect for connecting laptops to monitors, touch panels, or large-format displays in professional environments.

60W Power Delivery for Charging and Peripherals

With USB Power Delivery up to 60W (20V/3A), the Lindy 5m Active USB 3.2 Gen 2 C/C Cable can simultaneously charge compatible devices and power peripherals. This eliminates the need for separate power adapters when extending connections to USB-C laptops, tablets, or smartphones, streamlining cable management in meeting rooms and collaborative spaces.

Durable Construction for Professional Use

Built with a 5.3mm diameter cable jacket combining PVC and TPE materials, this cable offers flexibility and durability for frequent use. Gold-plated nickel connectors resist corrosion and ensure reliable connectivity, while the black finish provides a professional appearance suitable for office and educational environments.
