About This Item
This Manhattan USB4® Type-C Charging Cable is compliant with USB Power Delivery standard 3.1, which introduced Extended Power Range (EPR). Cables and devices with EPR support power up to 240 watts (48 volts/5 amps), an increase that’s nearly 2.5x the 100-watt (20-volt/5-amp max) limit of the Standard Power Range (SPR) in PD 3.0. Such a superior wattage for USB-C® has a lot of benefits: high-end devices already take advantage of input power above 100 watts, which they currently receive from a proprietary charging brick. Those bricks use custom DC tips that are not interchangeable between different brands. If you lose such a brick, it is frustrating and expensive to replace. The universal USB-C® connector puts an end to that frustration, allowing notebooks from every manufacturer to be charged from any PD 3.1-compliant wall charger, power bank, or charger. PD 3.1 is backward compatible with PD 3.0, so you can still use your legacy chargers with 140, 100, 65 watts or lower. Transfer movies, music, or an entire photo library quickly with 40-Gbps data transfer speeds on this cable. The molded aluminum boot absorbs the stress of frequent bends without damaging the core of the cable, while the braided jacket makes the cable virtually tangle-free. That combination resists cracking and protects from daily wear and tear or frequent in-car use. The double shielding (aluminum foil and braid) and corrosion-resistant contacts provide maximum signal integrity.
