Notes & Compatibility
WARNING: Many cheap USB-C cables are USB 2.0 only despite looking identical to faster cables. Will NOT output video, transfer data quickly, or support fast charging above 15W without PD negotiation. Check for the USB-IF power capability logo (60W or 240W) — its absence is a red flag. Always check the cable rating.
