Any recommended products available on amazon or monoprice? Looking specifically for 5A (100W) capable cables (ideally with some decent data throughput as well).
High speed data means thicker cables. https://www.monoprice.com/product?p_id=24283 these are 2.0 5A cables. I am using the AmazonBasics cables because they are very thin and I don't do wired data transfers -- my tiny, tiny laptop is not TB3 capable and USB C by itself doesn't do networking. I plug M.2 2242 - USB enclosures and QNAP QNA-UC5G1T adapters directly. It's the best soluton to connect my two laptops as fast as possible.
