Standardized connections like the OWC Thunderbolt 4/USB-C 2m cable make it even easier to connect devices of various manufacturers and integrate them into your setup. It doesn't matter if it's displayed (4 - 8K), tablets, computers, cameras, RAIDS etc. - standardized cable management simply leads to the desired result faster! However, high-quality materials are indispensable for data transmission to take place cleanly and as quickly as possible. With this lab-certified OWC cable, TB4/USB-C compatibility and speed are guaranteed, regardless of your devices. Moreover, thanks to the backward compatibility with TB3 and the future USB 4, all more devices can be used.
I bought this cable for two reasons, first to see if it would make the speed of an external disc any faster and second because I am buying a faster computer with Thunderbolt 4 capability and will need this lead for connecting any externals to the computer.
For the first purpose this lead made no difference so it is probably the disc that is very slow, so it will be replaced in due course.
For the second the new computer is still on the way from China.
So I have not had much value out of this lead.
So I can only give it 3 stars, living in hope that it will perform to expectations with the new machine. Is this being over-generous, I wonder?
