Introducing the USB4 20 Gbps Switch
Cable Matters, a leader in cutting-edge connectivity solutions, proudly introduces its latest innovation: the USB4 20 Gbps Switch. Tailored to meet the diverse and dynamic needs of today’s remote workforce, this versatile and powerful device seamlessly blends performance, adaptability, and cost-efficiency. ‘The vision of this product grew from the needs of today’s remote workforce,’ says Jeff Jiang, CEO of Cable Matters.
Key Features of the USB4 20 Gbps Switch
Unlike traditional switches, the USB4 20 Gbps Switch is engineered to handle two USB-C, USB4, or Thunderbolt-enabled devices concurrently. It effortlessly scales to match the demands of gadget-intensive users. The switch allows users to instantly share a USB-C, USB4, or Thunderbolt monitor or docking station between two devices. Switching between them is made easy with the unit’s button or the included remote control.
High-Performance Capabilities
This state-of-the-art switch does not require a power adapter for operation and supports a 20 Gbps throughput. However, it is not compatible with 40 Gbps signals. For optimal functionality, it comes with two USB4 20 Gbps cables. The switch supports high video resolutions up to 8K at 30 Hz and multiple resolutions including 6144×3456 at 60 Hz, 5128×2880 at 60 Hz, and 3840×2160 at up to 144 Hz, provided DSC is activated in the video chain.
Additional Features and Convenience
The USB4 20 Gbps Switch offers 140 W power delivery (PD) charging, catering to the power needs of most portable devices. Its RF remote control facilitates convenient switching between devices without the necessity for extra cables. The switching time between macOS and Windows systems is efficient, approximately 12 seconds on macOS and 7 seconds on Windows, making it slightly slower but highly effective.
The USB4 20 Gbps Switch from Cable Matters stands out as an unparalleled connectivity solution, meeting the high demands of modern remote work environments with its incredible performance, flexibility, and user-centric design.
