Running that much power next to a data line sounds like a terrible idea for signal integrity, especially if something shorts to said data lines. It just sounds sketchy or filled with so many asterisks that it's functional impossible to reach their claimed throughput.
It's likely dc current which without the alternating magnetic fields will not degrade the signal as bad. But I whole heartedly agree with you on power delivery. What could possibly need/use that much power‽
its super nice to plug a laptop into a screen and have the cable double as a charging cable for the laptop
Yeah, agreed. But 480 watts‽
um, gaming laptop maybe?
Honestly no idea, you have a good point.
