2m High Quality 10Gbps Cable

With the proliferation of USB-C cable standards, shapes, speeds and charging capabilities, it's hard to tell just what they are to get. I have always trusted Cable Matters to provide quality cables that will last and do the job I bought them for. Many people don't realize that speed and distance don't always go hand in hand. This cable is the first USB 3.1 Gen 2 (10Gb/s) cable I've found that's 2 meters long. This is because the cable is active, meaning it has circuitry built into the bulge around the cable that improves its ability to deliver full speed over a 2m length. It is important to understand that this cable has a "direction" - you need to connect it correctly between the computer and the device. The cable is clearly labeled and color coded so you can connect each end to the correct device. If you need both speed and length I highly recommend this cable.
