USB-C Male to USB-C female cable launched
Versatile cable supports Power Delivery (PD) charging and more
Cliff Electronics has introduced a USB-C male-female connecting cable that supports Power Delivery (PD) charging at 60 watts (20v/@3A), USB 3.1 (Gen 1), 5Gb/s data transfer speeds, and can be used as a video cable for 5k@60Hz video output (Thunderbolt 3) and for audio transmission.
When used in a system equipped with Cliff FeedThrough connectors, both the XLR and SLIM versions, the cable can be used to connect to a monitor in the same way as existing HDMI and VGA FeedThrough connector versions. Cable lengths available include 0.3, 0.5, 0.75, 1, 1.5 and 2m.
Driving forward
John Hall, managing director of Cliff Electronics, comments: “USBC ports are now appearing on many new devices, including monitors, laptops and flash drives, and 25% of new cars are predicted to have them by 2025. Major mobile phone manufacturers are now designing USBC connectors into their latest models, enabling high-speed charging and a one-cable solution for charging.”
The new USB-C cables can be used with a wide range of Cliff USBC XLR and DualSLIMS footprint female-to-male FeedThrough connectors, available in metal or plastic and with many assembly options.
