Futureproof USB4 Cable
on July 15, 2024
Posted by: Tall Paul
I used this USB4 cable to connect my Macbook Pro to an external thunderbolt drive. I did a few speed tests transferring some large and small files, and it does achieve 40Gbps. I have also used it to charge up an external battery bank, current measured at 140w, (which is the highest power rated device I currently have) which worked perfectly, and as this is capable of up to 240W, nicely future proofed. The strain relief on the cable is very good, and the cable itself feels solid, well made and a quality product. Even if you are only using USB-C / USB3 Gen 2 now, its well worth getting this USB4 cable to future proof anything you may want to connect in the future. I recommend this cable, it just works.
