High-Speed 10 Gbit/s Data Transfer

This cable supports the USB 3.2 Gen 2 standard. It offers a maximum data transfer rate of 10 Gbit/s. This speed is twice that of standard USB 3.0 (Gen 1). In practice, this allows for quick file transfers between compatible SSDs and computers. It also supports high-resolution video output if your device allows it.

100W USB Power Delivery Charging

The cable supports USB Power Delivery v2.0. It handles up to 100W of power (20 V / 5 A). This allows you to charge demanding devices like laptops, not just phones. However, you must use a compatible USB-C PD charger to achieve this speed. Always check your device’s power requirements.

Universal USB-C Reversible Design

The USB-C connector is symmetrical. This means you can plug it in either way up. There is no “wrong” orientation. This design reduces wear on the port and makes connection quick. It is compatible with a wide range of modern devices that use the USB-C standard.

1.8 Metre Length & Durability

The cable measures 1.8 metres long. This length offers flexibility for desk setups or charging from a floor socket. The black finish is practical for most environments. However, the input does not specify the outer jacket material or bend rating. You should verify physical durability if used in high-traffic areas.
