The ACT USB4 20Gbps 240W USB Type-C Cable (0.5 m) is a USB4 Gen 2x2 cable designed to combine high-speed data, power delivery and video over a single USB-C connection. It supports data transfer rates up to 20 Gbps, the DisplayPort Alternate Mode 1.4 for video output up to 4K@60Hz, and Extended Power Range (EPR) profiles that allow up to 240W charging. The cable is black, 0.5 m long and features reversible USB-C connectors on both ends.

Advantages

The cable includes an intelligent e-marker chip to negotiate supported features with connected devices and ensure safe power delivery up to 240W. It provides backward compatibility with USB 3.2, USB 3.1, USB 3.0 and USB 2.0 and supports simultaneous data transfer, power and video transmission over one USB-C cable.

Suitable for

• Connecting USB-C laptops to high-power chargers for fast charging (up to 240W)
• Transferring large files between USB4 or USB 3.x devices at up to 20 Gbps
