Before Buying USB3.1 Type-C Data Cable, You Need To Understand!

USB 1.1, 2.0, 3.0, 3.1 is a USB specification that was initiated by companies such as Intel. USB 2.0's maximum transmission bandwidth is 480Mbps (ie, 60MB/s), while USB 3.0's maximum transmission bandwidth is up to 5.0Gbps (625MB/s). USB 3.1 is currently the latest USB specification. Compared with existing USB technology, the new USB technology uses a more efficient data encoding system and provides more than double the effective data throughput, reaching 10.0Gbps (1.3GB/s). It is fully backward compatible with existing USB. Connectors and cables.

USB3.1 Type-C data cable

In simple terms, USB 3.1 means faster transmission speed and higher power supply. However, there are many USB 3.1 interface types.

About USB 3.1 need to understand the following points:

1, USB 3.1 compatible with the existing USB3.0 software stack and device protocols, 5Gbps hubs and devices, USB 2.0 products.

2. USB 3.1 contains most of the features of USB 3.0.

3, USB 3.1 as the next generation of USB transmission specifications, often referred to as "SuperSpeed +", will replace USB 3.0 in the future.

4. The maximum allowable power supply standard under the USB 3.1 interface has been significantly increased to 20V/5A (Type-A/B only) and can provide up to 100W of power output capability. The highest standard of Type-C is 12V/3A. The 36W charging capacity is sufficient for the use of thin and light notebooks. This is also the reason why the new MacBook dares to abandon MagSafe and uses Type-C as the charging interface.
