Review on Apple Thunderbolt Cable 2 0 M by Josh Garber

Revainrating 1 out of 5

When connecting an external Blackmagic Capture card.

I bought this Thunderbolt cable and to be honest I have yet to get it working with a Blackmagic Design Ultrastudio mini recorder for recording. I even bought a genuine tb3 to tb2 adapter from apple and tried to connect to a windows pc with a tb3 connector but it still didn't show up in the bmd desktop software. My Windows Thunderbolt software recognized the device but it didn't even show up in OBS Studio. The same device connected to my macbook with tb2 port and still nothing. Maybe I'm doing something wrong, but this cable still doesn't work the way I need it to. Now that I think about it, this BMD device didn't even turn on with a small LED, meaning it's getting power.

Pros
  • Connect Thunderbolt-enabled peripherals to your new iMac or MacBook Pro.
Cons
  • New competitors are here
