MTP only with original cable on Xperia 10 iii?

Dear all,

apologies if this topic has been already covered elsewhere.

On my Xperia 10 iii I can get MTP to a computer established only with the original cable from the Xperia box. This is true for Linux and Windows PC. All other USB cables that work fine with Android MTP to the sane PCs, on my Xperia lead only to charging, no question in Sailfish OS if I want to use MTP. That works only with the original sony cable.

Anyone else having this behavior?

What might be the specification of this original Sony USB cable that makes it so unique?

Many thanks, best

Xura
