The USB 4 specification was released on August 29, 2019 by USB Implementers Forum.

USB 4 is based on the Thunderbolt 3 protocol specification. It supports 40 Gbit/s throughput, is compatible with Thunderbolt 3, and backwards compatible with USB 3.2 and USB 2.0.

The architecture defines a method to share a single high-speed link with multiple end device types dynamically that best serves the transfer of data by type and application.
