USB Type-C Data Cable ShiverPeaks BS13-57045 — USB 3.2 Gen 2x2, TPE Jacket, 3 m

ShiverPeaks BS13-57045 is a USB Type-C data cable engineered for high-speed connections where extended reach is required. With support for USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 performance and a 3 m length, this cable is intended to deliver reliable data throughput between laptops, desktops, external drives and docking stations. The jacket is made from thermoplastic elastomer (TPE) to provide durability and flexible handling for everyday use.

Advantages

The cable supports USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 signaling for increased theoretical throughput compared to earlier USB generations, enabling faster transfers of large files when paired with compatible hosts and devices. The 3 m length offers extra reach for workstation setups without compromise to mobility. A TPE outer jacket adds abrasion resistance and flexibility while remaining lightweight and resistant to kinking under normal use conditions.

Suitable for

• Connecting laptops or desktops to external NVMe or SSD storage devices for fast file transfers
• Linking docking stations or hubs to host computers where a longer cable run is needed
• Transferring large data sets, backups or media libraries between compatible devices
• General USB Type-C data connections in home, office or studio environments

When it may not be suitable

If your devices do not support USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 speeds, the cable will operate at the maximum mutually supported USB version and will not provide Gen 2x2 throughput. This cable is focused on data transmission; if you require high-wattage power delivery for laptop charging or alternate mode video output, verify device compatibility and power/video specifications before relying on a single cable for multiple functions.

Key specifications

• Connector type: USB Type-C to USB Type-C
• Supported standard: USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 compatible data signaling
• Cable length: 3 m
• Outer jacket material: Thermoplastic elastomer (TPE)
• Primary use: High-speed data transfer and device connection

How to use

Connect one USB Type-C plug to the host device (laptop, desktop or docking station) and the other plug to the target device (external drive, SSD enclosure or hub). Ensure both connected devices support the desired USB generation for maximum performance and that ports are clean and unobstructed. For optimal throughput, use compatible device settings and up-to-date drivers or firmware on host and peripheral devices.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify both host and peripheral devices support USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 to achieve the highest data rates.
• Check whether you need power delivery or video alternate mode; confirm the cable and devices support those features if required.
• Consider cable length and routing in your workspace to avoid stress, sharp bends or interference sources.

Usage recommendations

Use the cable in straight, gentle paths without tight bends and avoid placing heavy objects on it. Store coiled loosely and disconnect by holding the connector housing rather than pulling the cable. For maximum transfer speeds, connect devices that explicitly list USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 support and keep device firmware and drivers current.
