Cable Matters [Intel Certified] 80Gbps Thunderbolt 5 Cable, 1m, Black

great product. state of the art!

They are thick and high end cables! far beyond Samsung and similar cables, which are thin and easily damaged. Compatible with type C devices and offer both charging and data transfer at high speed. No wonder they are reputable brand and expensive, but worth every penny!

I've been using this now for a few months to connect an external Acasis Thunderbolt 5 SSD enclosure to my Mac Studio. Performance and reliability have been perfect with no disconnections or any drops in performance. The cable is quite short, which is ideal as it means I don't have a tangle of cables on my desk.

I ordered this yesterday and it came this afternoon. I have an M1 MBP and wanted to connect my Sandisk G40 SSD to it for high speed date transfer to use with Final CutPro. As a comparison, with a USB-C cable the speed was under 1000, with a TB3 cable it was about 1900 but with the TB5 cable it is well over 2500. Very very impressed and I'm guessing if it was used with a TB5 computer it would be even quicker

Over the years ive spent a lot on top end cables, however saw this and thought I would try it. Then tried cancelling the order after thinking about how much it is. Already sent so it didnt cancel the order, got it the next day Sunday, so could take it to the PO, however using my normal cables I transferred a series mid size files to a usb hard drive, it took 3mins 40secs, I thought ok I will try this one the thunderbolt 5, it did it in 42secs, I then popped on a usb a 3.2 adaptor on the usb c and it did the transfer in 36secs, I decided to keep the cable, I guess when you look at it, it just looks like a cable, its when you use it, you realise why it costs more.

The Cable Matters [Intel Certified] 80Gbps Thunderbolt 5 Cable with up to 120Gbps Bandwidth Boost and 240W Charging is so cutting edge that it’s ahead of all of my technical setup to be able to truly test it towards its full potential. I do have a thunderbolt 4 equipped dock which is obviously out the box equipped with a tb4 cable - I swapped this with the cable matter thunderbolt 5 cable and found no negative impact on bandwidth or charge power, which is fantastic. I also very much appreciate that the cable has the thunderbolt logo and a 5 clearly printed on it as it makes finding the right cable in a drawer full of them nice and easy. It would of been nice to have a cable tie attached out of the bag but it’s still a very cost effective cable considering it’s the latest tech.

Purchased to use with a Samsung SSD drive. It provides an upgrade in performance than the lead Samsung supply with the drive.

Noticeably faster charging as well as data transfer, highly recommended.

Solid cable and works as per specifications

Ottimo cavo, funziona per trasmissione video, ricarica e dati, tutto in uno. Nel mio caso collegato a monitor con ingresso usb c e funzione kvm.

Vitesse impressionnante et parfait pour l’avenir. J’ai acheté ce câble Thunderbolt 5 principalement pour accélérer le transfert de données entre mon iPhone 15 Pro Max et mon MacBook Pro 16" (M4 Pro). Je savais que la vitesse maximale de l’iPhone est de 10 Gb/s, mais j’ai choisi ce câble en pensant aussi à mes futurs appareils compatibles TB5. Dès la première connexion, j’ai enfin vu dans la configuration macOS que l’iPhone était bien reconnu à 10 Gb/s. Lors de la sauvegarde complète, la vitesse n’était pas multipliée par dix (beaucoup de petits fichiers limitent le débit), mais pour le transfert de vidéos lourdes, c’était quasiment instantané — une énorme différence par rapport au câble standard fourni. 👉 Points positifs : Très haute vitesse confirmée avec mon iPhone, nette amélioration par rapport au câble d’origine. Longueur compacte de 0,3 m, parfaite pour une connexion propre sur le bureau. Connexion stable : le câble s’insère facilement dans les ports, sans jeu. Suffisamment souple malgré sa courte longueur, ce qui le rend agréable à utiliser. 👉 À améliorer : Le câble n’est pas gainé en tissu. Ce n’est pas un problème de qualité, mais personnellement je préfère les câbles tressés. Un excellent choix si vous voulez déjà profiter de la vitesse maximale de vos appareils actuels et être prêt pour l’arrivée de périphériques TB5. Pour moi, le rapport qualité-prix est excellent, et j’ai hâte de le tester avec un futur disque externe compatible Thunderbolt 5.

Good!

Je ne pensais pas que la qualité des câbles était si important (mais oui, câble matters!!) . J’ai un disque dur SSD externe pour Mac sur lequel se trouve la dernière version de MacOs pour le démarrage. Apres quelques minutes le Mac plantait . J’ai changé le câble après avoir essayé plein d’autres choses . Et oui , avec ce câble : zéro plantage , le câble d’origine était de mauvaise qualité . Les débit du disque est équivalent au SSD interne !! Le top !
