Description
Design and appearance
The Glorious Coiled Keyboard Cable in Crimson Red is a stylish and durable USB-C cable designed for mechanical keyboards, with full details and specifications below. It’s a popular choice for enhancing the aesthetic of a gaming or custom keyboard setup.
Color: Crimson Red, featuring a double-braided, red textile sleeve woven over a red rubber coating, with black connectors.
Aesthetics: Inspired by vintage PS/2 coiled cables, it creates a clean, tidy look on your desktop. The tight, “springy” coils are engineered to maintain their shape over time.
Connections: The cable has a durable, 5-pin metal aviator connector that securely joins the coiled and straight sections. This allows you to mix and match cable sections from different colors or easily connect/disconnect your keyboard
Technical specifications
Connectors: USB-C (for the keyboard) to USB-A (for the PC).
Cable length: The total length is 4.5 feet (1.4 meters), which includes a 6-inch (15.2 cm) coiled section and a 4-foot straight section.
Cable Orientation: The device-side connector features a 90-degree angle, ensuring the coil can run parallel to your keyboard for a cleaner look.
Compatibility: The cable is compatible with the Glorious GMMK PRO, GMMK 2, and most other USB-C mechanical keyboards.
Data Transfer: It uses a USB 2.0 cable, which reliably transmits data but does not support keyboard polling rates above 1,000 Hz.
Durability: The double-sleeved, braided cable is designed to be highly flexible, tangle-resistant, and long-lasting.
Performance and usage
Function: The primary benefit of this cable is its aesthetic appeal and the tidy cable management it provides, making it an artisan accessory for enthusiasts.
Connectivity Notes: For optimal performance, it’s recommended to connect directly to a port on your PC rather than a USB hub. In some rare cases, users may experience connection issues, but most can be resolved through basic troubleshooting.
Gaming: While sufficient for most gaming, those who require polling rates above 1,000 Hz (e.g., in competitive esports) may need to look for a USB 3.0 or higher cable
