The ShiverPeaks BS13-56030 is a 2 m USB data cable with USB-C connectors on both ends that supports USB 3.2 Gen 2x2. Designed for high-throughput connections, this grey cable offers a maximum data transfer rate of up to 20 Gbit/s and is suitable for modern laptops, external drives and peripherals that use USB-C interfaces. Gold-plated contacts improve signal reliability and contact longevity while the 2-metre length provides flexible reach between devices.

Advantages

This USB-C to USB-C cable delivers high-speed data transfer up to 20 Gbit/s thanks to USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 support, reducing transfer times for large files and backups. The dual USB-C connectors ensure broad compatibility with contemporary devices without the need for adapters. Gold-plated contacts help resist corrosion and maintain stable connections, and the 2 m length offers a practical balance between reach and cable management.

How to use

Plug one USB-C connector into the host device and the other into the peripheral or storage device. The cable is plug-and-play with operating systems that support USB-C; no additional drivers are normally required. For optimal performance, ensure both connected devices support USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 or compatible high-speed USB standards. Avoid tight bends near the connectors and secure devices to prevent strain on the cable during transfers.

Recommendations

For sustained high-speed transfers, connect directly to a device port that advertises USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 bandwidth. If transfer speeds are lower than expected, verify both device capabilities and port specifications, and try alternative ports or cables to isolate limitations.
