I have a s5e tab. This thing is awesome in every way but Samsung's  cable is not long enough  for me to use the tablet  while  charging. Can anyone recommend a compatible fast charging cable this s5e  tab?

Maybe this if it is USB-C/USB-A cable, they are 15 watts capacity : https://www.amazon.ca/-/fr/Various-Lengths-Durable-Charging-Compatible/dp/B07XFNQ49G/ref=sr_1_2?__mk...

You have a lot of cable on Amazon, check the charge capacity

Those look like poor quality cables. The fact they're brand-less is worrisome, not only for durability but also for safety

Those are from Otterbox. They're not a multi pack, which is most reassuring: https://www.amazon.ca/-/fr/Otterbox-78-51263-C%C3%A2ble-USB-emballage-d%C3%A9tail/dp/B071P21FL2/ref=...

As a bonus, they're much longer than the stock cables. Those are 3m cables

Multi pack. Avoid. Plus they are inadequate for flashing, as Odin has issues with USB3

Yes they support up to 3A, while the Tab S5e uses QuickCharge 2.0, which uses up to 2A.

"Hey @小Kyo,
Please follow the below link to buy the cable.
https://www.samsung.com/ca/mobile-accessories/cable-2016-power/EP-DG930IBEGCA/". As of now, this accessory is out of stock. I request you to check this website periodically and also check third party websites.

@CHMultimedia interesting info. I did use the cable to reflash Pie on my Note 8 with no issue (after a dirty install). But also using it with a USB2 port. I also have it for wireless charging and normal cable charge. I've used them for 2+ years now. Maybe I just got a lucky set. 😅
