USB4 cable Exsys EX-K1598-2.0 — 40 Gbit/s data, 240 W power delivery

The Exsys EX-K1598-2.0 USB4 cable delivers high-performance connectivity with support for up to 40 Gbit/s data transfer and up to 240 W power delivery. Designed for modern workstations and compact setups, this USB4 cable consolidates data, video and power over a single reversible connector, enabling direct connections between compatible laptops, docking stations, external drives and monitors. The cable supports high-bandwidth peripherals and power-hungry devices while maintaining a compact, flexible form factor suitable for both office and home use.

Advantages

This USB4 cable combines very high data throughput with elevated power delivery, allowing simultaneous fast file transfers, multi-stream video output and device charging through one connection. The cable is backwards-compatible with USB-C hosts and peripherals where USB4 features are supported, and its robust design minimizes signal degradation over short to medium distances. Users benefit from simplified cable management and reduced adapter requirements when connecting modern peripherals and displays.

Suitable for

• Connecting laptops to docking stations for single-cable data, power and video
• High-speed data transfer between external NVMe drives and hosts
• Driving high-resolution monitors and multi-display setups that require high bandwidth
• Powering and charging laptops, high-capacity batteries and USB-C PD devices up to supported wattage

Key specifications

• Data transfer rate: up to 40 Gbit/s
• Power delivery: supports up to 240 W
• Connector type: reversible USB-C form factor compatible with USB4-capable ports
• Functionality: simultaneous data, video and power over one cable
• Intended use: connectivity between laptops, docks, external storage and displays

How to use

Connect the USB-C ends to compatible USB4 or USB-C ports on your host device and peripheral. The cable negotiates data and power according to the capabilities of both connected devices; ensure both devices support the desired USB4 features for full 40 Gbit/s throughput and maximum power delivery. For video output, connect the cable to a device or dock that advertises DisplayPort or alternate mode support over USB-C. No special drivers are typically required, but update device firmware or host drivers if recommended by the hardware manufacturers to ensure optimal performance.

Recommendations

Use the cable with devices that explicitly support USB4 and high-wattage USB Power Delivery to achieve the stated data and power performance. Avoid using the cable with uncertified adapters or long passive extension cables that can reduce bandwidth or limit power negotiation. Keep firmware and drivers up to date for hosts and peripherals to ensure compatibility and stable operation.
