Thunderbolt 4 can hit speeds of up to 40Gbps and support up to two 4K displays or even an 8K panel. And with Apple’s newly listed cable, you can reap those benefits from a nearly 10-foot distance.
As spotted by The Verge today, Apple company has listed a 9. 8-foot-long Thunderbolt 4 Pro Cable on its online store, saying the product is “coming soon. ” That length offers greater flexibility than the longest Thunderbolt 4 offerings from wire makers like Belkin (6. 6 feet), Cable Matters (6. 6 feet), and Plugable (6. 4 feet). The extra length could be just what the doctor ordered for large offices and studios. Even the countless brands on Amazon don’t offer a Thunderbolt 4 cable at a comparable length.
As with any product through Apple, the 9. 8-foot Thunderbolt 4 cable comes at a premium. Apple is selling the particular cable for $159, or about $16. 22 per foot. For comparison, Belkin’s longest Thunderbolt 4 cable is $10. 61 per foot, Cable Matters’ is $9. 09 per foot, and Plugable’s is around $10. 94 for each foot.
