It’s finally here the USB Type C or 3.1 if you like. Adopted by Apple for their Macbook and the Google Chromebook laptops it’s hopefully going to make thing a lot simpler for a change.
Here are the technical details:
USB 3.1 Type-C cables offer a transfer rate of 10Gbps, which is double the transfer speed of USB 3.0 (5 Gbps). Additionally, these cables will offer 100 watts20 volts and 5 amps of power, compared with the 5 volts and 1.8 amps of its predecessor. This means less waiting around for devices to transfer data or for their batteries to charge.
That’s not all the other really useful feature is it’s ability to handle AV so this new connector really does have all the angels covered. Watch this space for more into in the months ahead as this becomes more widely adopted by industry.
