  • Is there a difference in USB-C cables?
    I have an USB-C hub on which the HDMI out doesn't work if I use my Anker USB-C cable. With 2 others I have it works perfectly.

  • Yeah there's secret specs about what they can transfer, there was in USB-A too but it was less commonly a problem.

  • Type C is just a plug its nothing to do with the USB bandwidth. Its a bit like power plugs, lots of different types that doesnt really dictate how much power they give.

    For example:

    • My tablet uses USB 2.0 with a Type C port
    • My phone uses USB 3.0 with a type C port

    Cables will meet the bandwith from the standard they are desinged to use i.e. 2.0, 3.0, 3.1 etc - not the ports standard.

    You will need USB 3.0+ with a Type C plug
