5. Maintenance
To ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your BolAAzuL USB C to DisplayPort Cable, follow these maintenance guidelines:
- Handle with Care: Avoid bending the cable sharply or pulling it by the cord. Always grasp the connectors when plugging or unplugging.

6. Troubleshooting
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| No display on monitor. | Incorrect input selected on display; USB-C port does not support video output; loose connection; cable damage. | Ensure correct DisplayPort input is selected. Verify your device's USB-C port supports video output (DisplayPort Alt Mode). Re-seat both ends of the cable firmly. Test with another compatible cable if available. |
| Flickering or unstable display. | Cable length exceeding optimal for resolution/refresh rate; interference; faulty cable. | Reduce resolution or refresh rate. Ensure no strong electromagnetic interference sources are nearby. Try a different cable if the issue persists. |
| Audio not transmitting. | Audio output settings incorrect on source device; display device does not support audio via DisplayPort. | Check your computer's sound settings and ensure the DisplayPort output is selected. Verify your monitor/TV supports audio passthrough via DisplayPort. |
| Cable does not work from DisplayPort to USB-C. | Unidirectional cable design. | This cable is designed to convert signal only from USB-C to DisplayPort. It is not bidirectional. |
