- throw0101a 5y agoAnd yet USB does 'too little' overloading of the USB-C port: > Full-featured USB-C cables that implement USB 3.1 Gen 2 can handle up to 10 Gbit/s data rate at full duplex. They are marked with a SuperSpeed+ (SuperSpeed 10 Gbit/s) logo. There are also cables which can carry only USB 2.0 with up to 480 Mbit/s data rate. There are USB-IF certification programs available for USB-C products and end users are recommended to use USB-IF certified cables.[12] * https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/USB-C#Cables https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/USB-C#Cables Power delivery has a minimum of 60W (3A@20V) with support up to 100W (5A@20V), with a recent addition of 240W (5A@48V): * https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/USB_hardware#USB_power_delivery https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/USB_hardware#USB_power_deliver... And "USB-C" is not a monolithic entity, given there have been several revisions now (1.1, 1.2, 1.3, 1.4, 2.0, and 2.1 in May 2021).
