One cable for charging, data and a monitor
The E-marker chip tells the device that the cable handles 5 A, so a laptop can draw up to 100 W over USB PD. The same cable carries a DisplayPort Alt Mode signal to a monitor at up to 4K 60 Hz and data at up to 20 Gbit/s. Triple shielding and tinned copper protect against interference and corrosion. The connector is reversible and fits either way up.
