Lindy 1m USB 3.2 Type C to C Cable, 20Gbps, Black Line

The Black Line USB 3.2 Type C to C cables from Lindy are entry-level high-resolution connection cables suitable for home and small office use. These USB Type C to C cables support USB 3.2 data rates and DisplayPort Alternate Mode for video at up to 4K 60Hz, while the reversible Type C connector enables simple bi-directional connections between compatible hosts and devices.

Advantages

Triple-shielded construction with tinned copper conductors provides improved signal performance and corrosion resistance. Nickel-plated connector housings with gold-plated contacts help preserve signal integrity and ensure reliable connections. Available lengths make it easy to choose a cable for short or moderate runs.

How to use

Connect one USB Type C plug to the host device and the other end to the USB Type C port on the peripheral. The reversible connector makes insertion orientation irrelevant. For video output, ensure both host and display support DisplayPort Alternate Mode and set the display resolution/refresh rate on the host as needed. Performance (data rate or video capability) depends on the capabilities of connected devices and host ports.

Recommendations

Choose the shortest length that suits your setup to minimise cable clutter and potential signal attenuation. Verify that both connected devices support the required USB 3.2 generation or DisplayPort Alternate Mode to achieve the desired data throughput or video resolution.
