4.4 Magnetic Breakaway Function

The magnetic connection is designed to be strong enough for stable use but will detach if the cable is pulled with sufficient force. This breakaway feature helps prevent your device from being pulled off a surface and protects the USB-C port from damage.

5. Maintenance

  • Keep Contacts Clean: Periodically inspect the magnetic contacts on both the adapter and your USB-C cable. Use a dry, soft cloth or a cotton swab to gently clean any dust or debris that may accumulate, which could affect connectivity.
  • Avoid Excessive Force: While the magnetic connection is robust, avoid twisting or bending the adapter excessively when connecting or disconnecting.
  • Storage: When not in use, store the adapter in a clean, dry environment to prevent exposure to moisture or extreme temperatures.
  • Handle with Care: The adapter is built with a durable aluminum alloy shell, but dropping it on hard surfaces may cause damage.

6. Troubleshooting

  • No Power/Charging:
    • Ensure the adapter is fully inserted into your device's USB-C port.
    • Check that your USB-C charging cable and power adapter are functioning correctly and support the required wattage.
    • Verify that the magnetic connection between the cable and adapter is secure.
  • No Data Transfer or Video Output:
    • Confirm that your USB-C cable supports data transfer and video output at the desired speeds/resolutions (e.g., 40Gbps, 8K@60Hz).
    • Ensure your connected devices (e.g., external drive, monitor) are compatible with the adapter's specifications.
    • Check for any debris on the contacts that might interfere with signal transmission.
  • Loose Magnetic Connection:
    • Re-align the magnetic connection. Ensure there is no foreign material between the adapter and the cable.
    • The magnetic strength is designed to allow breakaway under certain force to protect ports. If it detaches too easily, ensure it's properly aligned.
  • Adapter Overheating:
    • It is normal for the adapter to become slightly warm during high-power charging or data transfer. If it becomes excessively hot, disconnect it immediately and contact support.
