Microconnect TB3005 Thunderbolt cable 0.5 m 40 Gbit/s Black

The MicroConnect Thunderbolt cable TB3005 (0.5 m) is a high-speed, RoHS-compliant cable designed for Thunderbolt 3 ports and USB-C devices. With male-to-male connectors and a compact 0.5 m length, it supports up to 40 Gbit/s data transfer when connected to compatible Thunderbolt 3 ports and provides up to 100 W power delivery for charging and powering devices. The cable is built with an Intel Thunderbolt chipset and durable materials to ensure reliable connections and consistent performance.

Advantages

This Thunderbolt cable supports maximum Thunderbolt 3 throughput of up to 40 Gbit/s and can carry up to 100 W of power for rapid charging. It is constructed with high-quality coaxial conductors, ultra-fine tinned copper and TPE outer jacket with TEFLON insulation for flexibility and reduced interference. The cable is lightweight (approx. 20 g), compact (0.5 m) and RoHS compliant, making it suitable for both portable and stationary setups.

Suitable for

• High-speed data transfer between Thunderbolt 3 devices (e.g., external SSDs, eGPUs, docking stations)
• Connecting Thunderbolt-enabled laptops and desktops to monitors supporting dual 4K@60Hz via Thunderbolt
• Power delivery up to 100 W for charging compatible laptops and devices
• Connections to Thunderbolt 3 docks, Razer Core, eGPU enclosures and PCIe expansion devices

Key specifications

• Manufacturer: MicroConnect
• Model: TB3005
• Interface: Thunderbolt 3 / USB-C (male to male)
• Data transfer rate: up to 40 Gbit/s (when used with Thunderbolt 3 ports)
• Power delivery: up to 100 W
• Video: supports dual 4K @ 60 Hz over Thunderbolt; single 4K over USB-C with DisplayPort Alt Mode
• Length: 0.5 m
• Weight: 0.02 kg

How to use

Connect the male USB-C connectors to the Thunderbolt 3 ports on both devices. For the maximum 40 Gbit/s speed and dual 4K@60Hz video capability, ensure both host and peripheral use Thunderbolt 3 ports. To output video from a USB-C port, verify that the port supports DisplayPort Alternate Mode; in that configuration a single 4K display is supported. The cable also supports up to 100 W power delivery when connected to compatible chargers and devices.

Recommendations

Use the TB3005 with Thunderbolt 3-certified ports and devices to achieve full performance. Avoid forcing connectors and keep cable bends gentle to prolong life. Note that regular USB-C ports without Thunderbolt 3 do not provide Thunderbolt-level bandwidth or dual 4K output.
