Performance Result
10Gbps SuperSpeed support! Yes, below is the result that I got from Kingmax Zeus PX3280 + Choetech NVMe M.2 SSD Enclosure by using this cable. Rest assures that you will get the fastest transfer rate from your portable storage. In addition, this USB C cable is certified by USB-IF (Test ID: 5,210,000,338). Therefore, it can output video from devices with DP alt mode or Thunderbolt 3 passive mode. Yes, just connect to your USB-C monitor will do. Up to 4K video is supported.
Finally, it also supports Power Delivery charging standard (5-20V, 60W max). Yes, it can provide up to 3A current to your mobile devices. Fast charging is supported no doubt. Just one thing to take note, its USB-C plug is slightly bigger than usual one. Therefore, not all smartphone cases can support it (UAG case can!). No such issue on notebook rest assures.
