The Difference between Thunderbolt 4 and USB 4 cables

When it comes to connectivity, understanding the differences between various cables is essential, especially when trying to optimize your setup for high-speed data transfer, display, or charging needs. Two terms that have been buzzing around are Thunderbolt 4 and USB 4—but what exactly sets them apart? More importantly, how can you ensure you’re using the best option for your devices?

In this blog, we’ll break down the differences between Thunderbolt 4 and USB 4 cables, while also spotlighting Mowsil’s Type C USB 4 8K Cable, a top-tier option designed to meet the demands of modern connectivity.

Thunderbolt 4 vs. USB 4: 

While Thunderbolt 4 and USB 4 share some similarities, they serve different purposes and excel in unique areas. Here’s how they compare across various criteria:

1. Speed

Both Thunderbolt 4 and USB 4 cables offer a maximum data transfer rate of up to 40 Gbps. This is a significant improvement over older USB versions like USB 3.2, which topped out at 20 Gbps.

However, one key distinction is that Thunderbolt 4 guarantees the full 40 Gbps in all use cases, while USB 4 offers variable speeds depending on the device and cable quality. This means that, for most users, Thunderbolt 4 might offer more consistent high-speed performance.

2. Display Capabilities

Another crucial difference lies in display support. Thunderbolt 4 supports dual 4K displays or a single 8K display, ensuring ultra-high-definition clarity, perfect for gaming, video editing, or any display-intensive work.

USB 4 is more flexible, but not every USB 4 cable can support dual displays or 8K resolution. The level of display support varies depending on the specific cable and device pairing.

3. Power Delivery

Both cables can provide power delivery, allowing for fast charging of laptops, smartphones, and other USB-C devices. Thunderbolt 4 supports up to 100W of power delivery, which is ideal for powering larger devices like laptops. USB 4 cables can also offer similar power, though their specifications might vary depending on the manufacturer.

4. Compatibility

While Thunderbolt 4 is fully backward compatible with USB 4, USB 3, and Thunderbolt 3, it has stricter compatibility requirements. USB 4, on the other hand, has more flexible configurations, but this sometimes results in variable performance across devices.
