CalDigit [Intel Certified] Thunderbolt 4 Cable - 40Gbps 100W Charging, Compatible with Thunderbolt 3 & USB-C, 2016+ MacBook Pro, Air, 2020+ M1 (0.8 Meter 2.62 Feet, Thunderbolt 4 / USB 4 Cable)

Ive connected my 2019 MacBook Pro to a Thunderbolt dock with this 2-meter-long cable so I can sit with the laptop on my lap (imagine that) and have several external drives connected from afar. It works. Id ordered another, cheaper, cable from another manufacturer and the slightest movement caused disconnection of all the drives. Id tried several ways to steady the connections but no luck. Then I tried a short CalDigit cable that came with a CalDigit dock I use at the office and it seemed to be reliable. So I took a chance (not a chance, really, with Amazons return policy) on this longer cable. A week into it and so far not a single disconnect. It must have to do with the connectors gripping more tightly, plus the sheathing on this is a more flexible plastic than the off-brands braided sheath. Dont skimp if you want reliability. Others may be just as good but definitely not the one I tried first. Unfortunately its too late to return it.

CalDigit is always making great quality products

Best of its kind and also INTEL certified

I bought this to use with my Razer dock. Every time I slightly move the dock or computer, or bump the wire slightly, it disconnects. Ive done some testing to find the problem. I tried using this cord to simply charge my laptop, but found that the slighest bump will disconnect it there as well.

This TB4 cable allows me to switch back and forth between two Macs using the same TS3+ dock by simply unplugging the cable from one Macs TB Port and plugging it into the TB Port on the other one. Sounds simple, but it was never that simple with the old long active Thunderbolt 3 cable. With the old TB3 long active cable, there was a laborious process of Mac detection and dock reboot required to switch between the two Macs using the same dock.

I bought the 2 meter cable for my thinkpad thunderbolt 3 dock because this meets the specifications lenovo states in the user manual. I bought it to replace the passive 1.5 meter cable that comes with the dock. It works great, but only works if I have the power cord plugged into the laptop. If the power cord is not plugged into the laptop, the caldigit cable will not work. Whereas the 1.5 meter passive cable that came with the dock does not require that. This is presumably something to do with the laptop hardware design/limitations, rather than some fault of this caldigit cable.

Very sturdy construction unlike all the cheap, stiff braided USB-C/Thunderbolt cables being hawked on Amazon and elsewhere! Thunderbolt 4 active cable with high PD and data speed ratings. Nothing is forever but CalDigit comes close at this point in time. A 2-meter cable which charges my MacBook Pro as fast as any available, Super Fast charging for my Samsung Galaxy S22+, 40GBps data transfers for my portable SSD and CFExpress card reader: all at 2 meter length!! Worth the premium price!

Bought this because the same brand 3 that came with my lenovo docking station about 2 years ago was not working. My monitor connected to the docking station would flick out and back on. Did not have the problem with this one. Seems to work well. Also connecting wireless mouse and wired keyboard through the docking station.

Running an eGPU with no issues. The sheath is thick and seems durable, but the cable should still be treated carefully as its connector housings are plastic.

The 2m cable works perfectly with my CalDigit TS3 Plus & my ‘17 MacBook Pro. The original 0.5m cable that came with the TS3 Plus was just too short for my needs. The 2m cable allows me to move the TS3 Plus off my desk and next to my router on a side table. Plug in my backup drive & everything is sweet. No issue with performance. Delivers enough power to my MacBook Pro & my desk is uncluttered.
