    Why not label the ports and cables with:

    • 10Gb/s
    • 2.1Amps
    • 1080p at 60hz

    It’s future proof and doesn’t need a decoder manual other than basic literacy. It can be in whatever language the fucking keyboard is. If you want to be redundant but even more clear:

    • Universal Serial Bus -> (this hole right here)
    • Speed: 40Gb/s
    • Power: 2.4Amps
    • Audio/Video: 4K at 120Hz or 8K at 30Hz

        So do like they did for video and put 2A @ 5V on the label. Now you have power.

        Edit: clarity

          But if its USB PD it can be more than 5V though.

            That’s why you specify it there:

            2A@5-15V or something.
