USB Cable S/CONN 77140-2.0 USB 3.2 Gen 1 2m Black

The ShiverPeaks USB Cable S/CONN 77140-2.0 is a 2 m black USB-C to USB-C data cable designed for devices that support USB 3.2 Gen 1 (also noted as USB 3.1 Gen 1). It uses USB-C connectors on both ends and features nickel-plated contacts to improve contact reliability and resist corrosion. The cable supports the advertised maximum data transfer rate of up to 10 Gbit/s and is intended for data synchronization and connection of compatible peripherals and hosts.

Advantages

This USB-C cable provides a balance of reach and performance with a 2 m length that allows flexible device placement. Support for USB 3.2 Gen 1 enables high-speed data transfers up to 10 Gbit/s where supported by connected devices. Nickel-plated contacts contribute to long-term contact stability and reduced oxidation. The black finish offers a neutral, unobtrusive appearance suitable for office and home setups.

Suitable for

• Connecting laptops, tablets and smartphones with USB-C ports for file transfers
• Linking external drives, SSDs and docking stations that support USB 3.2 Gen 1
• Cable routing in workstations where a 2 m length is required
• Replacing a worn USB-C to USB-C cable for data connectivity

Key specifications

• Connector type: USB-C to USB-C
• USB version: USB 3.2 Gen 1 (equivalent to USB 3.1 Gen 1)
• Maximum data transfer rate: up to 10 Gbit/s (depending on host and device support)
• Cable length: 2 m
• Product colour: Black
• Contact plating: Nickel-plated contacts

How to use

Connect one USB-C plug to the source device and the other USB-C plug to the target device or peripheral. Ensure both devices support USB 3.2 Gen 1 to achieve the maximum data transfer rate; otherwise, the transfer speed will default to the highest common standard supported by both endpoints. Use gentle insertion and removal to preserve the nickel-plated contacts and avoid bending the cable sharply near the connectors to extend its service life.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, pair the cable with devices that explicitly support USB 3.2 Gen 1 and verify that system settings or port configurations do not limit transfer speeds. Store the cable coiled loosely without tight knots and avoid prolonged exposure to extreme temperatures or moisture.
