How to use

Plug the USB-C connector of the adapter into the USB-C port of your host device or cable and connect the USB 4.0 Gen.3x2 plug to the peripheral or cable requiring that interface. Ensure both connected devices support the intended USB 4.0 Gen.3x2 capabilities to achieve maximum data throughput. The adapter is designed for plug-and-play use; no software installation is required. Disconnect by gently removing the adapter from the connectors to avoid strain on ports and cables.

Recommendations

Use the adapter with compatible devices and certified cables to preserve signal quality. For continuous high-bandwidth transfers, avoid excessive bending or tension at the connection points and allow adequate ventilation around active devices. If a device does not negotiate USB 4.0 speeds, the connection will fall back to the highest mutually supported USB mode.
