>Intel unveils cable far better than usb4 with consistant naming scheme
Usb organization is just blowing intel rn
Get ready to find out that USB4 is just thunderbolt 3
I'm just glad they're sticking to USB-C, good for compatibility.
This is what happens when you let engineers off the leash.
Replace engineers with marketing wankers
Marketing wankers would add words to the name in addition to upping the number. Instead of Universal Service Bus (USB) by now we'd be on Stupendous Awesome Zippy Global Fresh Universal Service Bus Plus Gold 10 (SAZGFUSB+GX)
yeah but then the next version would be USB X which is based

>USB 3.2
USB 3.2 Gen 2x2
I have no idea what thunderbolt is or how to use it
I dislike high quality frogs, could you please lower it
my apologies
thank you 🙂
We're making it out of 2.X with this one
loony tronny
basically (2)displayport with some added lanes for data.
i have no idea what displayport is or lanes for data
Ok, thunderbolt 5 is a very fast rope
bigger tubes
PCI Express but in cable form
Lower quality frog takes up more space than the higher quality one. Why?
Inferior compression messing the image up
Several of these are compatible with the europlug (2 holes), used across the eu
We're getting near the point where plugging in the wrong USB-C revision cable between your computer and an external device will cause a fire.
This is literally the opposite case.
Unless you buy some chinkware
You haven't seen the worst yet.
USB 3.1 gen 1
USB 3.2 gen 2
USB 4 T. Whatever the fuck
>>USB 3.2
No no no, we don't call it like that. It's USB 3.2 Gen 2x2.
Let me guess, Thunderbolt 5 is going to use the USB-C connector to add to the clusterfuck, right?
thunderbolt has been using usb-c for a while now
Is there a device I can plug my USB (and maybe HDMI) cables into and have it tell me what type of "Universal" cable it is? I have tons of USB cables and don't know what any of them are cable of beyond a slight hint of range by the connector type.
Perhaps you could wire something up with lspci, but i doubt it.
I believe cable testers exist and they could probably tell you everything the cable is capable of, but I don't think such a device would be cheap (since it would be some sort of specialty device used for design/development, not something mass-produced for consumer use).
you didn't even list all of the protocols, you're missing a bunch of 3.x ones, homosexual.
How can a cable that isn't any thicker carry more power without melting
nanomachines
Generally speaking, the way you do that is by increasing the voltage.
Don't you also need thicker insulation to keep that much potential from jumping unwanted places?
Yes, you do in theory but USB is pretty low voltage to begin with so I don't think it's a practical problem at this point. It could go from 20V max to 40V and it would probably be fine, I don't think 40V is going to arc through plastic insulation.
>cables not for the people
i don't get it
I'll be glad when we can be rid of 90% of pic related. 240 watts isn't enough for some things, but it's enough for most things.

I live in Chile where type L is used, I'd keep that one since you can fit 3 of them in the same outlet and can handle 15A just fine when on 220V. Maybe a polarized version for improved safety at the cost of convenience
How much does it cost to implement this standard?
$200 for a 3ft cable?
>usb is now just like SCSI
