USB power delivery does not use the data lines at all. It negotiates the permissible voltage and current using Vbus pin only. There's no reason why your USB data port needs to be enabled while charging. Just disable it. I actually have a charge-only thunderbolt cable in my desk ... it's incredibly irritating because the only way to tell the difference between it and a real thunderbolt cable is that it doesn't work.


Sounds like exactly what I was looking for, where did you pick it up?


Secops at work distributed them. I have no idea where they came from.
