StarTech Thunderbolt 5 Right-Angled Cable (0.8m)

StarTech Thunderbolt 5 Right-Angled Cable (0.8m) Overview

Experience next-generation connectivity with the StarTech Thunderbolt 5 Right-Angled Cable (0.8m), designed to deliver ultra-high performance between Thunderbolt 5-enabled devices. Supporting up to 80 Gbps bidirectional bandwidth, 120 Gbps Boost Mode, 8K 60Hz video, and 240W Power Delivery, this Intel Thunderbolt-certified cable is ideal for demanding professional workflows, including 8K video editing, content creation, high-performance storage, and workstation setups.

Featuring Thunderbolt 5 Boost Mode, the cable dynamically allocates bandwidth for display-intensive applications, delivering up to 120 Gbps transmit and 40 Gbps receive speeds. This makes it suitable for driving multiple high-resolution displays while maintaining fast data transfer performance for connected peripherals.

The cable supports DisplayPort 2.1 Alt Mode, enabling up to 8K at 60Hz or 4K at 240Hz video output, with DSC, HDR, and 10-bit colour support. It also supports PCI Express 4.0 (64Gbps) for high-bandwidth devices such as external GPUs, networking adapters, and professional storage solutions.

Designed for flexible installation, the right-angle connector helps reduce cable clutter and allows the cable to sit flush against devices in tight spaces, reducing strain on ports and improving cable management. The durable TPE jacket has been tested to withstand up to 2,000 bending cycles, while nickel-plated connectors provide reliable performance through more than 10,000 insertions.

With backward compatibility for Thunderbolt 4, Thunderbolt 3, USB4, and USB-C devices, this cable provides reliable connectivity across a wide range of modern laptops, docks, displays, and peripherals.
