USB4 Gen4x2 C‑to‑C Cable EQUIP 2 m, 80 Gbps, PD 240W, 8K@60Hz, Black

The EQUIP USB4 Gen4x2 C-to-C cable (2 m) provides a single-cable solution for ultra-fast data transfer, high-resolution video output and high-power charging between USB-C devices. Built on USB4 technology and compatible with Thunderbolt 3 and 4, it supports up to 80 Gbps data throughput, DisplayPort 1.4a video output up to 8K@60Hz and Power Delivery 3.1 for up to 240 W (48V/5A). The cable features premium braided cotton mesh, double shielding and an aluminum housing for improved durability and signal integrity.

Advantages

This USB-C to C cable combines high data bandwidth, advanced video capabilities and strong power delivery in one connector type. Support for Thunderbolt compatibility and DP Alt Mode enables connection to external SSDs, docks, GPUs and high-resolution monitors. The integrated E-marker chipset ensures correct power negotiation while robust construction—braided jacket, double shielding and aluminum casing—helps maintain stable performance and long-term reliability.

Suitable for

• Connecting laptops to docking stations and external monitors (up to 8K@60Hz)
• High-speed transfers to and from external SSDs and storage devices
• Powering and charging power-hungry laptops and workstations (up to 240W PD 3.1)
• Use with Thunderbolt 3/4 compatible peripherals and USB4 devices

When it may not be suitable

The cable is optimized for USB4/TB3/TB4-capable hosts and devices; older devices limited to USB 2.0/3.x will not benefit from the maximum 80 Gbps bandwidth or 8K video output. Devices that require proprietary charging protocols outside USB Power Delivery may not achieve full charging functionality.

How to use

Connect one USB-C end to a host device (laptop, dock or compatible phone) and the other end to the target peripheral (monitor, external SSD, dock or charger). For maximum video performance ensure both devices support DisplayPort Alt Mode and DisplayPort 1.4a; for maximum data throughput and device compatibility use USB4- or Thunderbolt-capable ports. When charging, confirm that both the host and the power source support USB PD 3.1 and the required voltage/current profile to reach up to 240 W.

What to consider before purchase

• Ensure your devices support USB4, Thunderbolt 3/4 or the required DP Alt Mode for 8K video and 80 Gbps data rates
• Verify that both charger and device support USB PD 3.1 if you need up to 240 W charging
• Check device compatibility with HDCP and PCIe protocols if using protected content or external GPU setups

Recommendations

Use the cable with certified USB4 or Thunderbolt ports and compatible power adapters; avoid excessive bending near the connectors and route the braided cable to minimise stress for long-term reliability.
