    I read this hoping to get more details. Is this like thunderbolt? External PCIE? Perhaps something to make eGPU's feasible? What exactly is this and what bandwidth does it have?

              While it came first, right now thunderbolt is more or less a certified and tested compliant version of USB.

              Thunderbolt 3 became USB4.

              Thunderbolt 4 is USB4 Version 2.0

              Thunderbolt has additional quality testing as thunderbolt is a trademark that will be enforced and companies will be sued if they try to pass inferior products as meeting the specs.

                    They call it CopperLink so that they can have "FiberLink" later, perhaps?
