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.

I bought this as an extra power cable for my 15 MacBook Pro Touchbar. The CalDigital cable is definitely more sturdy than the OEM cable and one of the few cables right that are able to handle the 87watts of power (100w is the max) for my computer. The cable is a bit pricey but Im confident it will last for the years to come.

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.

Works as Advertised

I connected it to thunderbolt Raid device, included cable was too small so I bought this one thinking it will give me same speed. SDD speed dropped to 35mbps, original OEM cable gave 750mbps.

Excellent cable. Works as expected with no issues.

Expensive, but true thunderbolt 4 cable ! High Quality !

First The most important part I don’t unplug it daily maybe once a month and yet it Doesn’t last, went through 3 in less then a year! I should have know better to just stop buying after two, but sometimes you just don’t have time to search. For sure overpriced Chinese garbage. You would think a company wouldn’t want their name stamped onto that. If your company is good and charging a lot maybe do the opposite of what everyone is doing and actually make your own products in America.

Unfortunately for all the tech junkies out there who wants a longer version of their current short Thunderbolt 3 cable, this cable does not work. I have now tested it on multiple devices and even though it allows some of the same data and connections through it does not fully allow everything through. Were all going to have to wait it seems for a company like Belkin to produce a longer cable as this companys cable seems to be a bust.

Long cable with 40gb speeds!
