HP 5AR72AA USB-C to USB-C 100W cable content_copy

The HP USB-C to USB-C cable (manufacturer number 5AR72AA, type CABL) is a specific connection element designed for use with HP Z Display docking and charging stations. It serves as a physical interface for data transfer and power supply between compatible devices, particularly in the context of HP Z-Series workstation environments. The cable is designed for use in professional settings where high performance, reliability, and standard compliance are required.

Applications
This cable is primarily intended for connecting to HP Z Display docking and charging stations. These stations act as a central interface for mobile workstations, especially for notebooks and workstations, enabling data, power, and potentially video signal transmission via USB-C interface. The cable is used in corporate environments where a stable and high-performance connection between mobile devices and stationary peripherals is necessary.

Functions and Equipment in Detail
The cable features a USB-C plug at both ends with a straight form factor, enabling a direct and stable connection. The cable color is black, allowing it to blend seamlessly into professional work environments. The construction is designed for business environments, reflected in its robust design and compliance with relevant safety and EMC standards.

Technology Explained Simply
The cable supports a maximum power output of 100 W, making it suitable for simultaneous data transfer and charging of compatible devices. The USB-C plugs enable bidirectional data transfer and power delivery over a single cable. The use of USB-C connectors at both ends ensures universal connectivity, regardless of plug orientation. The power delivery over USB-C (PoE, Power over Ethernet) here does not refer to Ethernet networks, but rather to the capability of transmitting power via the USB-C cable — a feature relevant for charging notebooks and other devices.

Compatibility and Accessories
The cable is specifically designed for use with HP Z Display docking and charging stations. Compatibility is limited to these devices, as stated by the manufacturer. It is not intended for general USB-C connections or other docking stations without specific Z-Display support. Use with other devices is not guaranteed and may result in malfunctions.

Installation and Mounting
Installation is performed by simply inserting the USB-C plug into the corresponding sockets on the docking station and the connected device. No additional tools or configurations are required. The connection becomes active immediately once the plugs are fully inserted. The straight design of the plugs allows for easy and secure placement without additional fastening.

Operational Advantages
The cable provides a reliable and high-performance connection designed for professional use in corporate environments. The combination of data transfer and power delivery over a single cable reduces the number of required cables and simplifies workstation setup. Compliance with standards IEC 62368-1:2018 and EN 55032:2015+A11:2020 ensures safe and interference-free operation. Certification under the Radio Equipment Directive 2014/53/EU and the RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU confirms compliance with European safety and environmental standards.
