It carries data at up to 40 Gb\/s, giving post-production rooms, technical workstations, and installed production systems much more freedom in how equipment is placed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003cp\u003eUSB-C male connectors are fitted at both ends, while the long-distance signal path is handled over optical fiber. The all-dielectric design improves galvanic isolation between connected equipment, and automatic thermal shutdown adds another layer of protection during operation.

The host computer can stay in an edit suite or technical rack while storage, interface hardware, or other compatible devices sit much farther away without building the connection from several shorter cables.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003cp\u003eThe optical construction also makes sense in technical environments where electrical separation is useful. Because the cable is all-dielectric, the data path adds galvanic isolation between the two endpoints while still carrying Thunderbolt 3 traffic at up to 40 Gb\/s.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003cp\u003eFor installation and day-to-day use, the connection stays straightforward: USB-C at one end, USB-C at the other, and one continuous 50 m cable between them. Automatic thermal shutdown is built into the design, which is useful when the cable remains installed for long operating periods.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3\u003eSystem Characteristics\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cul\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThunderbolt 3 interface\u003c\/strong\u003e provides the high-speed device connection\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum throughput\u003c\/strong\u003e: Up to 40 Gb\/s\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOptical transmission\u003c\/strong\u003e carries data across the 50 m cable run\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAll-dielectric construction\u003c\/strong\u003e supports enhanced galvanic isolation\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUSB-C male connector\u003c\/strong\u003e is used at the first endpoint\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUSB-C male connector\u003c\/strong\u003e is used at the second endpoint\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAutomatic thermal shutdown\u003c\/strong\u003e provides built-in temperature protection\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDurable construction\u003c\/strong\u003e is designed for extended equipment connections\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMac compatibility\u003c\/strong\u003e supports use with compatible Apple systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCable length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 50 m (164 ft)\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColor\u003c\/strong\u003e: Black\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3\u003eWhat's In The Box\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cul\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e1 x Optical Cables by Corning Thunderbolt 3 Optical Cable (164')\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3\u003eTrusted Seller\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCoremicro\u003c\/strong\u003e supplies professional AV, broadcast, conferencing, collaboration, camera, and production equipment for installed and portable workflows.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Corning","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47487305285794,"sku":"COR-AOC-CCU6JPN050M20","price":479.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0580\/0860\/0738\/files\/CorningCOR-AOC-CCU6JPN050M20.jpg?v=1787889392","url":"https:\/\/www.coremicro.com\/products\/corning-50-meter-thunderbolt-3-optical-cable","provider":"COREMICRO.COM","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
