New USB connector can be inserted without looking
Organization USB 3.0 Promoter Group has developed the USB-connector of the new generation. The main advantage of the new connector Type-C, which is based on the specifications of USB 3.1 and 2.0, independent of orientation — that is, insert the cable into the USB slot can be used by any party without looking.
A two-way connection supports Lightning connector to Apple devices starting with the iPhone 5. Moreover, the reduced size of the connector — its size will be close to the current USB 2.0 Micro-B, — a maximum speed at the expense of compatibility with the standard USB 3.1 will increase to 10 gigabits per second.
And still his rival Thunderbolt 2 ("lightning" port, which is equipped with Apple computers) offers to double the speed of up to 20 gigabits per second in both directions that enables to transmit 4K (3840x2160) and at the same time display it on a discrete monitor.
However, in Type-C is will support higher speeds in the future. Finally, the new connector can transmit electrical energy to recharge the devices.
To the main disadvantage of Type-C include incompatibility with the current connectors.
