| Topic | I hate how different USB C cables are. |
| Kamen_Rider_Blade 07/23/22 7:14:50 PM #13: | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/USB_hardware Remember, original USB A/B ports were 4 connectors / wires. https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/user_image/9/6/2/AAAFvAAADfIq.png USB Micro-A/B with OTG introduced the 5th connector for 5 connectors/wires to allow connecting of the same Connector head on both ends. SuperSpeed USB added in 5 more connectors to the base 5 connectors for a total of 10 connectors / wires. USB Type-C, the so-called Universal Connector is OVERLY COMPLEX and WAY too flexible. That's good & bad for so many reasons that I would need to write an essay on it. https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/user_image/9/6/3/AAAFvAAADfIr.png 24 Freakin Micro Contacts / wires that are as thin as a human hair, if not thinner. Quality of your Hair Strand thick Copper needs to be super high quality and pure. The Micro-Controller managing each USB-C has to be included and programmed correctly. All Wire-Shielding has to be done correctly. If you don't, you're going to get a USB-C cable that can't do everything and will only do limited functionality as specified by the Micro-Controller. Or it can literally FRY your LapTop if the vendor did a slip shod job on it. I think we need a Updated Super Speed Connector that works with the latest USB specification, but takes all the Miniaturization advantages of the Type-C port and makes a smaller port. One that is only a "Single Super Speed" lane instead of multiple lanes that is programmable. Maybe we should have a USB Mini-C port that is simpler, smaller, cheaper. Maybe a small elongated Hexagonal port like this: https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/user_image/9/6/4/AAAFvAAADfIs.jpg But with this type of pin lay-out that is reversible. https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/user_image/9/6/5/AAAFvAAADfIt.png One where you can easily split a single Type-C port into 3x or more Mini-C ports, each with a Single Super Speed Lane. We don't need everything in our Port Lives to be Jumbo Super Gulp XL sized bandwidth Sometimes, we need Ports with Bandwidths that are: Small, Medium, & Large. --- Are you a MexiCAN or a MexiCAN'T - Johnny Depp 'Once Upon A Time in Mexico' ...
