The ShiverPeaks USB Cable S/CONN 13-48016 is a white USB-C to USB-C data cable supporting USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 technology for data transfer rates up to 20 Gbit/s. With a compact length of 0.5 m, the cable is intended for direct connections between modern laptops, external drives, docking stations and other devices with USB-C ports. The reversible USB C connectors on both ends offer straightforward plug-and-play use and a tidy cable run for desktop or mobile setups.

Advantages

This cable offers high-speed data throughput in a short, easy-to-manage length suitable for close-proximity device connections. The USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 standard enables significantly faster transfers compared with earlier USB-C data cables, making it suitable for moving large files or streaming high-bandwidth content. The uniform white design integrates with light-coloured workspaces and consumer electronics, while the USB-C to USB-C form factor ensures broad compatibility with contemporary devices.

Suitable for

• Connecting laptops to external SSDs or NVMe enclosures for fast file transfer
• Linking USB-C docking stations to host computers in compact workstation setups
• Direct device-to-device data transfers between smartphones, tablets and computers with USB-C ports
• Short-range connections where minimal cable clutter is required

Key specifications

• Connector type: USB-C to USB-C
• USB standard: USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 (up to 20 Gbit/s)
• Cable length: 0.5 m
• Colour: White

How to use

Plug one USB-C connector into the USB-C port of the source device and the other connector into the target device. The reversible connector design allows insertion in either orientation. No driver installation is required for standard host operating systems; the devices will negotiate the supported transfer mode automatically. For maximum performance, ensure both connected devices support USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 or compatible high-speed modes.

Recommendations

To achieve optimal transfer speeds, use the cable for short, direct connections and avoid physical strain on connector ends. Verify that both devices support the USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 specification and use compatible enclosures or interfaces for high-performance storage. Store the cable coiled without tight bends and keep it away from sources of heat or sharp objects to prolong service life.
