A few years ago, you would plug in your mouse, keyboard, speakers, monitor, etc. into separate ports on a computer. Now, I have a dock that all my peripherals connect to, and my laptop is just connected to that dock through a single USB-C cable. There’s never any noticeable lag, either. What improvements have been made so that this is now possible?
In: Technology
To be clear one of the big improvements is optimizing the construction of the cable. As you increase the speed of a communication device, the signals start to get sloppier looking. By controlling the construction of the cable, you can move more and more data per second without it becoming unreadable.
