Setup Instructions

1. Identify Connectors: Locate the male USB-A connector (the flat, rectangular end that plugs into a computer or hub) and the female USB-A port (the receptacle end where another USB cable plugs in) on the extension cable.
2. Connect to Host Device: Plug the male USB-A connector of the BYTECH CLMCCA100BK extension cable into an available USB-A port on your computer, laptop, USB hub, or other host device.
3. Connect Peripheral Device: Take the USB cable of the device you wish to extend (e.g., mouse, keyboard, printer) and plug its male USB-A connector into the female USB-A port of the BYTECH CLMCCA100BK extension cable.
4. Verify Connection: Ensure both connections are secure. Your operating system should automatically recognize the connected peripheral device. No additional drivers are typically required for this extension cable.

Operating Instructions

The BYTECH CLMCCA100BK USB 2.0 Extension Cable operates on a plug-and-play principle. Once connected as described in the "Setup Instructions" section, the cable facilitates the extension of your USB connection without requiring any user interaction or software installation.

• Ensure the host device (computer, hub) is powered on.
• Connect your USB peripheral to the female end of the extension cable.
• Connect the male end of the extension cable to the host device.
• The peripheral device should function as if directly connected to the host device, but with the added reach provided by the extension cable.

Maintenance

To ensure the longevity and proper functioning of your BYTECH CLMCCA100BK USB 2.0 Extension Cable, follow these simple maintenance guidelines:

• Cleaning: Use a soft, dry cloth to wipe the cable and connectors. Avoid using liquid cleaners or solvents, as these can damage the cable.
• Storage: When not in use, store the cable in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Avoid tightly coiling or bending the cable sharply, which can damage internal wires.
• Handling: Always grasp the connector housing when plugging or unplugging the cable. Do not pull on the cable itself, as this can strain the connections and lead to damage.
• Inspection: Periodically inspect the cable for any signs of wear, fraying, or damage to the connectors. If damage is observed, discontinue use.

Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues with your BYTECH CLMCCA100BK USB 2.0 Extension Cable, consider the following troubleshooting steps:

• Device Not Recognized:
  • Ensure both ends of the extension cable are securely plugged in.
  • Try connecting the peripheral device directly to the computer's USB port to confirm the device itself is functioning.
  • Test the extension cable with a different USB port on your computer or a different peripheral device.
  • Restart your computer.
• Slow Data Transfer:
  • Verify that both the host device and the peripheral device support USB 2.0 speeds.
  • Ensure no other high-bandwidth USB devices are connected to the same USB hub or controller, which might be sharing bandwidth.
• Intermittent Connection:
  • Check for any physical damage to the cable or connectors.
  • Ensure the cable is not bent or kinked excessively.
  • Avoid placing the cable near sources of strong electromagnetic interference.

If these steps do not resolve the issue, please contact customer support.
