USB Cable EFB Elektronik EBUSBC-USBC-REP.5 5m USB 3.2 Gen 2 Black

The EFB Elektronik EBUSBC-USBC-REP.5 5m USB 3.2 Gen 2 Black is a 5-metre USB-C to USB-C data cable designed for modern devices that support USB 3.2 Gen 2 (also known as 3.1 Gen 2) data rates up to 5 Gbit/s. With identical USB-C connectors on both ends and a neutral black finish, the cable provides extended reach for desktop, workstation, home office, or AV setups while maintaining a compact connector profile compatible with contemporary laptops, tablets, smartphones and peripherals.

Advantages

This USB cable supports high-speed data transfer up to 5 Gbit/s with USB 3.2 Gen 2 signalling, enabling fast file transfers and reliable peripheral connections. The USB-C-to-USB-C connectors allow reversible plug orientation for easy insertion and broad compatibility with devices that use USB-C ports. The 5 m length provides added flexibility for device placement without the need to reposition hardware, and the black colour offers a discreet aesthetic that integrates well into most environments.

Suitable for

• Connecting laptops, tablets or smartphones with USB-C ports to external drives or docking stations
• Extending reach for USB-C peripherals such as external SSDs, monitors with USB-C input, or USB-C hubs
• Home office and professional workstation setups requiring flexible cable routing
• Audio‑visual installations where a longer USB-C link is needed between source and device

Key specifications

• Connector type: USB Type-C on both ends
• USB standard: USB 3.2 Gen 2 (3.1 Gen 2) supporting up to 5 Gbit/s data throughput
• Cable length: 5 metres
• Colour: black

How to use

Insert one USB-C connector into the host device and the other into the peripheral device, ensuring the connector orientation is comfortable; USB-C is reversible so orientation does not affect connection. After connecting, the devices should negotiate supported link speed automatically; for maximum transfer rates, ensure both devices support USB 3.2 Gen 2. Use the cable for data transfer, connection to docking stations, or for peripherals that accept USB-C input. If alternating between different devices, unplug by holding the connector housing rather than pulling the cable jacket.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, use the cable with devices that explicitly support USB 3.2 Gen 2 to achieve up to 5 Gbit/s. Avoid sharp bends and excessive tension along the cable length; route the cable to prevent kinks and secure it away from heat sources. When connecting to power-delivery capable equipment, verify device specifications as this cable is specified for data transfer and connector compatibility—consult device manuals to confirm power or charging capabilities.
