Data cables include the data lines too. For controllers used wired (DualShock 4 wired play, USB-PC use), you need a data-capable cable. Most quality cables sold are full data cables; ultra-cheap bulk cables sometimes drop the data lines.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cdiv itemscope itemprop=\"mainEntity\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/Question\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong itemprop=\"name\"\u003eCan I use any USB-C cable with my Switch or DualSense?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv itemscope itemprop=\"acceptedAnswer\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/Answer\"\u003e\n\u003cp itemprop=\"text\"\u003eMost quality USB-C cables work for charging.
