USB cable S/CONN 13-68150 USB4 Gen 3x2 1.5 m USB C Grey

The ShiverPeaks USB cable S/CONN 13-68150 is a 1.5 m grey USB C to USB C data cable that supports USB4 Gen 3x2 with a maximum theoretical data transfer rate of 40 Gbit/s. It has gold-plated contacts for reliable signal transmission and improved corrosion resistance. The cable is designed for modern laptops, tablets, docking stations and peripherals that use USB-C connections and require high-bandwidth transfers or compact single-cable workflows.

Advantages

This USB4 Gen 3x2 cable delivers high data throughput up to 40 Gbit/s while maintaining compatibility with USB-C ports. Gold-plated contacts help ensure consistent connectivity and reduce contact wear over time. The 1.5 m length provides a practical balance between reach and cable management, and the neutral grey finish integrates discreetly with a wide range of device setups.

Suitable for

• High-speed data transfer between compatible computers, external drives and peripherals
• Connecting USB-C monitors, docks or hubs that support USB4 bandwidth
• Single-cable workflows for laptops and docking stations
• Transferring large media files and backups where sustained throughput is needed

Key specifications

• Connector type: USB-C to USB-C
• USB standard: USB4 Gen 3x2 (up to 40 Gbit/s theoretical)
• Cable length: 1.5 m
• Contact plating: gold-plated contacts for improved corrosion resistance
• Colour: grey

How to use

Connect one end of the USB C cable to the USB-C port of the host device and the other end to the target device or dock. Ensure both devices support USB4 or compatible USB-C specifications to benefit from maximum transfer speeds. For optimal performance, avoid tight bends near the connectors and keep the cable clear of strong electromagnetic sources. No additional drivers are normally required; the cable functions as a passive connection medium between USB-C compatible devices.

Recommendations

For sustained high-speed transfers, use devices and ports that explicitly support USB4 Gen 3x2. Store the cable without sharp bends, and disconnect by gripping the connector rather than pulling the cable. If connecting to devices with different USB specifications, performance will default to the lowest supported standard.
