The 56KΩ (TYPE C standard) pull-up resistor reliably protects your devices, ensuring safe charging or data transfer. Can be plugged in on both sides, USB Type C makes no difference between the top and bottom. No matter how you plug it in, it will fit. Every time. The Type C plug is made in one piece using the latest technology. Thus, this has no folded edges, making it more durable and robust. The braided nylon shell provides a long service life and tangling is prevented. The aluminum casing provides better heat dissipation. It heats up slower and cools down faster than comparable materials. The Type C cable is rated to max 20V/5A (100W) through the use of an Emarker chip and has a 56K pull-up resistor. This allows chargers to correctly detect what charging current is needed.
