  USB 3.2 or 4 allows for a thunderbolt 4 interface, that runs at 40 GB/s (for external gpu cards). Thunderbolt also uses Power Delivery and the latest version allows for a 48V @ 5A profile, that would be 240W. Even previous versions allow for 24V @ 5V (120W).

  As for the cable length I wouldn’t really know, probably it’s possible up to a meter, if the cable is well shielded, the power doesn’t change much because the current os always rather low, it’s the voltage that increases.

    None of those likely to be found on this specific debit mate…

      Not hating, I don’t know from which year this is from, didn’t even know it’s a development kit, and although the capabilities I mentioned are recent (and by recent, thunderbolt 4 has been around for at least a couple years, PD 120w for around the same or even more), a single usb-C has been capable of driving a portable device, that needs charging and a display output, from at least 7+ years.

      You can call me cynical, but yes, if I see a strange double usb-C port I think it doesn’t really make a ton of sense and the first thing I think about is a strange trick to transform a standard technology in something proprietary, especially since nintendo has done the same with the switch 2 by implementing non-standard usb c in their dock.

        even know it’s a development kit,

        So you just comment on posts without opening them and seeing what they are about…?

      This is not a recent revision. TB4 is from 2020. USB4 is 2019.

        USB 3.2 that they specified from their ai synopsis can’t handle either…
