4.1 Charging Your Device
To charge your device, connect the cable as described in the "Setup and Connection" section. The cable supports Power Delivery (PD) up to 100W, allowing for rapid charging when paired with a compatible power adapter and device. Charging speed may vary based on the power source and device capabilities.
4.2 Data Transfer

5. Maintenance and Care
- Storage: Store the cable in a clean, dry place away from extreme temperatures and direct sunlight. Avoid tightly coiling or bending the cable at sharp angles to prevent internal damage.
- Cleaning: Use a soft, dry cloth to gently wipe the cable and connectors. Do not use liquid cleaners or abrasive materials.
- Handling: Always grasp the connector head when plugging or unplugging the cable, rather than pulling on the cable itself. This helps preserve the integrity of the strain relief and internal wiring.
- Inspection: Periodically inspect the cable for any signs of wear, fraying, or damage to the connectors. Discontinue use if damage is observed.
