The USB 3.0 standard increases the data transfer rate to 10GBps, which is fast enough to carry full HD video and multi-channel, uncompressed audio. The standard also increases the power handling capabilities to 100 watts, which means that USB C will replace existing power, video, networking, and data cables. Apple is taking this to the extreme, with the latest MacBook Air® featuring only a single USB C port for charging, video, and connecting peripheral devices.
- New reversible Type C connector plugs
- Use a single cable for power, video, networking, and data
- USB 3.0 supports up to 10Gbps data rate
- Charge and power devices with up to 100 watts of power
