The ShiverPeaks BS30-42055 is a 5-meter USB cable with USB C connectors on both ends and support for USB 3.2 Gen 2 data transfer. Designed for extended reach, this black cable provides a single-cable solution for high-speed data transfer and device charging where a longer connection is required. The cable is compatible with devices that use USB-C ports and supports the throughput and signaling defined by USB 3.2 Gen 2.

Advantages

The cable supports USB 3.2 Gen 2, enabling higher data transfer rates compared to earlier USB standards while maintaining backward compatibility with USB-C devices. With a 5 m length, it allows flexible placement of laptops, peripherals and mobile devices without relying on short adapters. The symmetrical USB C connectors simplify insertion and reduce wear from repeated plug cycles. Its black jacket offers a neutral, professional appearance suitable for home and office environments.

How to use

Plug one USB-C connector into the USB-C port of your host device (laptop, desktop, dock or charger) and the other connector into the peripheral device (external drive, monitor, phone or hub). Ensure both devices support the intended USB mode and data rates. For best performance, avoid sharp bends and heavy kinks in the cable; route it so that it is not tightly pinched under furniture or across doorways.

Recommendations

For optimal transfers at USB 3.2 Gen 2 speeds, connect devices that both support the same USB generation. If using with power delivery or fast-charging functions, verify the power source and device accept the desired current and voltage. Store the cable coiled loosely and avoid prolonged exposure to extreme temperatures to maintain cable performance and longevity.
