Compiler Error

1 - USB4 consolidates various USB transfer modes introduced over the years by basing itself on the Thunderbolt 3 protocol, though host-support for tunneling existing Thunderbolt devices over a USB4 port is optional.
2 - Much like Thunderbolt 3, demonstration versions of Light Peak used a modified USB port, being run from a prototype Mac Pro logic board, transmitting data over a 30-meter optical-fiber cable.
3 - Thunderbolt 1, 2, and 3 can support up to 6 daisy chained devices, however devices that can make more than one downstream Thunderbolt port available will require a Thunderbolt 4 compatible computer.
4 - The copper variation of Light Peak was co-developed by Apple and Intel, with Apple trademarking the term Thunderbolt, though the trademark was later transferred to Intel.
