Apple Thunderbolt 3 Pro Cable

Released in mid-2020 internationally, Apple's new Thunderbolt 3 Pro cable features data transfer speeds at up to 40Gb/s and USB 3.1 Gen 2 data transfer at up to 10Gbs using the USB-C form factor. It supports Display port video output (HBR3) and up to 100W of power delivery. The cable is also powerful enough to daisy-chain (connect and use simultaneously) up to six Thunderbolt 3 devices. 

This is the perfect one cable that does it all. It allows for both data and power to run through it which means it can work for file transfer, connect and power an external device or monitor.

It features a heavy-duty braided design that Apple claims are designed to coil but not tangle.
