2. Ensure both devices are powered on and recognized by each other.
3. Initiate data transfer through your device's operating system or application.

4. Maintenance

Proper care will extend the life of your Cygnett USB-C cable.

• Storage: When not in use, coil the cable loosely. Avoid tight coiling or sharp bends, which can damage internal wires.
• Cleaning: Use a soft, dry cloth to wipe the cable and connectors. Do not use harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.
• Handling: Always grasp the connector housing when plugging or unplugging the cable, not the cable itself, to prevent strain on the connection points.
• Environment: Avoid exposing the cable to extreme temperatures, direct sunlight, or moisture.

5. Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues with your Cygnett USB-C cable, consider the following:

• Device Not Charging:
  • Ensure both ends of the cable are securely connected.
  • Verify that the power adapter or source device is functioning correctly.
  • Test the cable with another compatible device or power source if available.
  • Check the charging port of your device for any debris or damage.
• Slow Data Transfer:
  • Confirm that both connected devices support USB 3.1 Gen 2 speeds. If one device supports a lower USB standard, transfer speeds will be limited to that standard.
  • Ensure no other high-bandwidth operations are running on your devices.
  • Try connecting to a different USB-C port on your computer, if available.
• Cable Not Recognized:
  • Disconnect and reconnect the cable.
  • Restart the connected devices.
  • Ensure device drivers are up to date on your computer.

If problems persist, the cable may be damaged or incompatible with your specific setup. Contact customer support for further assistance.
