The Logitech Active USB Cable supports DisplayPort Alt Mode, allowing you to connect your laptop to MeetUp 2 with a single cable—no need to connect your laptop with an HDMI cable or adapter. Now, conference room workers can conduct video conferences by connecting a single cable to their laptop.

This 5-meter cable supports ultra-fast data transfers via USB 3.1 Gen 2 and is long enough to offer greater flexibility in small conference rooms.

It is important to know

For those looking for a reliable long USB-C to USB-C cable for data transfer or DisplayPort Alt Mode use, the length and quality of the connection are the most important factors. This cable will be most suitable for users who want to quickly connect a remote device, such as a monitor, laptop or smartphone, over a greater physical distance. In addition to the obvious advantages, it is worth carefully checking the compatibility of the devices before purchasing and considering whether you really need 5 meters.

• A 5m cable is ideal for fixed setups (e.g. office or home studio) where the source or connected device is physically remote, but is not practical for frequent portability or use on the go due to its bulkiness and potential bulkiness.
• Due to ultra-fast transfer rates and support for DisplayPort Alt, compatibility with modern USB-C devices is high, but for optimal performance, both the source and target require a supported standard - check your device's support before purchasing.
• With very long cables, the possibility of interference and loss of speed is technically greater than with shorter cables, especially if you are connecting more demanding devices (monitors, docking stations).
• Such a cable is less suitable for classic charging over shorter distances or for use with conventional chargers; choose it primarily for the benefit of longer length and special features.

In practice

🏠 Home use

🟢 Allows flexible connection of devices over longer distances, for example, to connect a laptop to a monitor or charge a phone from a remote outlet.

💼 Business work

🟢 Suitable for permanent office setups, such as connecting a workstation to remote displays or other peripherals, where signal stability is key.

🎮 Gaming

🟡 Works well for connecting gaming devices and monitors if both devices support USB-C with DisplayPort Alt, but it is recommended to check compatibility due to the possibility of interference with very long connections.

✈️ Travel

🔴 Not practical for portable use due to length and weight; shorter cables are more suitable for travel or use with power banks.

Answers to frequently asked questions

Is the cable suitable for video transmission (DisplayPort Alt Mode)?

Yes, if both your computer and monitor support DisplayPort Alt over USB-C.

How does the cable length (5 m) affect the data transfer speed?

With quality cables, most speeds are maintained, but very long connections may experience speed reductions or interference, especially in demanding environments.

Is the cable also suitable for fast charging devices?

It supports faster power transfer, but the charging speed also depends on the device and charger, which must support the appropriate standard.

Is the cable suitable for use with mobile phones?

If your phone has a USB-C port and supports appropriate data transfer or video output, the cable may be useful, but the length is more suitable for fixed use in practice.
