Are there magnetic USB-C connectors that can do USB 5Gb or even 10Gb?
There are, but are recommended against. Since they expose all the pins in a way it doesn't happen normally in the connector. If a device is not 100% perfectly protected you might send 20V in a data line that's expecting <1V, therefore frying something.
USB 5Gb/s uses voltages > 5V?
(I'm only talking about speed here, not USB-PD.)
No, but laptops often do :)
That'd be USB-PD, not USB 3.
I know.
