Overview

Pure USB-C-to-USB-C audio cable for connecting a modern phone, tablet or USB-C laptop to a USB-C-input DAC. USB 2.0 high-speed protocol (480 Mbps) is plenty for any audio sample rate; the audio cable variant prioritizes shielding over the data-throughput maximization that USB 3.x cables target.

E-marker chip negotiates the proper power-delivery profile so phones don’t try to fast-charge the DAC. 1 m and 2 m lengths.

The right cable for the modern portable DAC chain: phone → USB-C cable → USB-C dongle DAC or desktop DAC.
