Those who own a Thunderbolt 3 based Mac can use the Apple Thunderbolt 3 (USB-C) Cable (0.8 m) to quickly move large 4K video or data files to most Thunderbolt 3 or USB Type-C enabled devices and peripherals. By supporting Thunderbolt 3, this 0.8 meter cable can provide up to 40Gbps of data transfer rate when connected to a Thunderbolt 3 based device. The Apple Thunderbolt 3 (USB-C) Cable (0.8 m) also supports data transfer over the USB-C interface at USB 3.1 Gen 2 speeds (up to 10Gbps) as well as DisplayPort 1.4 and USB Power Delivery 3.0 technologies.

With DisplayPort 1.4, the Apple Thunderbolt 3 (USB-C) Cable (0.8 m) is able to support 8K@60Hz or 4K@120Hz displays which also lets you connect a daisy-chain of up to six Thunderbolt 3 based devices. The Apple cable can also be used to supply up to 100W of rapid charging power using USB Power Delivery 3.0.

Using the USB Power Delivery Compliance C2 Tester from Granite River Labs to run just a subset of the full USB Power Delivery compliance test suite, we can see below PD Communication Engine test report for the Apple Thunderbolt 3 (USB-C) Cable (0.8 m).
