Product Information

Full details

This 2-meter (6.6ft) USB-C cable 2-pack from StarTech.com is designed for users needing reliable charging and data transfer for their USB Type-C devices. Its key benefit is supporting up to 60W Power Delivery for fast charging laptops, tablets, and phones, alongside 3A output and USB 2.0 data speeds. A minor caveat is its USB 2.0 data transfer rate, which may be slower than USB 3.0/3.1 for large file transfers. The pack includes two durable, 2-meter black USB-C cables with rugged TPE jackets and nickel-plated connectors, suitable for frequent use at home, in the office, or on the go.

Is this cable suitable for connecting to a monitor?

No, this cable is designed for charging and USB 2.0 data transfer only. It does not support USB Type-C DisplayPort Alternate Mode for video output.

What is the data transfer rate?

The data transfer rate is limited to USB 2.0 speeds, which is a maximum of 480Mbps.

Can I use this cable to charge my laptop?

Yes, if your laptop supports charging via USB-C and requires 60W or less, this cable can be used with a compatible USB-C power adapter.

What material is the cable jacket made of?

The cable jacket is made of Thermoplastic Elastomer (TPE) for increased wear resistance and durability.

How long is each cable?

Each cable in the pack is 2 meters (approximately 6.6 feet) long.

Are the connectors plated with nickel?

Yes, the cable connectors are nickel-plated for enhanced durability and reliable connectivity.

Troubleshooting

Device not charging

Ensure both ends of the cable are securely connected. Verify that the USB-C power source (charger, port) is functional and provides sufficient wattage. Try a different USB-C port on your device or a different power adapter.

Slow data transfer speeds

This cable supports USB 2.0 speeds (480Mbps). For faster data transfer, a USB 3.0 or higher rated cable would be necessary. Ensure the connected device and port also support faster USB standards.

Cable feels loose in the port

Check for any debris or obstruction inside the USB-C port of your device or charger. If the port is clear, and the connection remains loose, the cable connector may be worn. Try the second cable from the pack.

Intermittent charging or connection

Inspect the cable for any visible damage to the jacket or connectors. Ensure the cable is not bent sharply. Try cleaning the connectors on both the cable and the device/charger.
