Recommended minimum bend radius
I’ve bent my Startech USB3 cables to a reasonably tight 90 degrees ( to my guide cameras ) without kinking and their still performing fine
Other cables forget it
Maybe I scored a few good cables out a production run ??
Or just good luck mixed with a bit of magic thrown in ??
