USB4 is the latest USB standard, launched in 2019, and it utilizes the USB-C connector type. While all USB4 cables use USB-C, not all USB-C ports support USB4's higher bandwidth capabilities. USB4 offers a significant speed upgrade over previous generations like USB 3.2, with speeds up to 40 Gbps for the first generation and up to 80 Gbps for Version 2.0 devices. This enhanced speed and bandwidth support make USB4 ideal for tasks such as transferring large video files, powering external monitors, and utilizing high-speed SSDs, and it also supports video output and external GPUs.
