The short version

Belkin's active 2 m Thunderbolt 4 cable is certified for 40 Gbps, 100 W Power Delivery and one 8K or two 4K displays, with an e-marker chip and over-voltage protection. Active cables like this hold full Thunderbolt speed at lengths where passive cables often cannot. It suits docks and monitors placed further from a laptop. Charging tops out at 100 W, below newer 240 W cables, and it costs more than passive 1 m options.

Common questions

Why choose an active Thunderbolt cable?

Active cables keep full 40 Gbps over longer runs. Belkin sells this 2 m active version alongside a passive 1 m cable, which was out of stock on its site when checked.

Does it work with USB4 and Thunderbolt 3?

Yes. Belkin lists it as USB4 compliant and backward compatible with Thunderbolt 3, USB 3.2 and USB 2.0.
