Whats the difference between USB 3.1 Gen 1 Type-C™ (Data Transfer Only, 5 Gb/s signaling rate) and SuperSpeed USB Type-C® 5Gbps signaling rate? or are they just the same but with different names?

Not all USB-C ports are the same. But in this case

 

  • USB 3.1 Gen 1 Type-C™ (Data Transfer Only, 5 Gb/s signaling rate)
  • and SuperSpeed USB Type-C® 5Gbps signaling rate.

In this case, they both are the same and make a lot on confusions
