Plugable Thunderbolt 4 Cable (6.6ft/2m) – Active, 40Gbps, 100W

I needed a long Thunderbolt 4 cable for my MacBook Pro and external SSD. This one is well-built with braided nylon, and it delivers the full 40Gbps speeds – I'm getting around 3,000 MB/s read on my NVMe drive. Also charges my laptop at 100W without issues. Worth the price.

The cable does its job – it's fast and supports charging, but it's a bit stiff and doesn't bend easily. That makes it a pain to route nicely. It's also longer than I needed, but that's on me. Overall, it's a reliable cable, just not the most flexible.

I use this cable to connect my Mac mini to an 8K display, and it works flawlessly. The picture is crisp, and data transfer is lightning-fast. It's clearly well-made with sturdy connectors. The 2-meter length is perfect for my setup. Highly recommend if you need a high-performance TB4 cable.

This is a great cable, but honestly, it's pricey. I got it for the reliability and the 100W charging capability, which works as promised. It's the only cable that can both charge my laptop and transfer data at full speed. If you need that, it's worth it, but if not, cheaper cables exist.

I bought this because the description said it's active, but I can't really tell the difference from my old passive TB4 cable. Both work fine at 40Gbps. The build quality is good, and it's long enough. It just feels like I paid extra for features I don't notice.

I've been using this cable daily for months, and it still works perfectly. I often wrap it up and stuff it in my bag, and it hasn't frayed or bent badly. The 100W charging is great – my MacBook Pro charges at full speed. It's become my go-to cable for everything.

This cable didn't work with my eGPU – I couldn't get a video signal. I tried all the ports, but nothing. It might be that my eGPU requires a different cable, but I expected it to work. I returned it and got a different brand. Not happy.
