The USB Implementers Forum (USB-IF), a non-profit organization that supports the development and implementation of USB technology, will formally launch the new USB4 version 2.0 standard this December. The Japanese company Elecom announced that it is one of the first to release two types of USB Type-C cables certified according to USB4 2.0 specifications.

The new USB4 2.0 standard reportedly includes data transfer rates of up to 80 Gbps in both directions (double that of USB4 first generation) and power transfer (PD) of up to 60 W (20 V/3 A), as well as 80 Gbps /s and 240 W power (48 V / 5 A). Elecom is going to release both types of cables – 80 Gbps + 60 W PD and 80 Gbps + 240 W PD.
In addition to power and data, both cables can be used to transmit images via DisplayPort with a resolution of up to 8K (7680 × 4320 pixels) at a refresh rate of 60 Hz.
According to TechPowerUp, a typical USB4 2.0 host controller will require at least a connection to the PCI Express 5.0 x4 system bus to achieve the maximum throughput of the standard.
