How to use

Insert the USB A (male) connector into the host computer or USB hub and the USB B (male) connector into the target device (for example, a printer or scanner). Ensure both connectors are fully seated. The cable is plug-and-play; most operating systems will recognise the connected device automatically. Avoid bending the cable sharply near the connectors and route it to prevent strain on the plugs.

Recommendations

For reliable high-speed performance, use the cable for data connections rather than for long-distance power delivery. Keep the cable away from strong electromagnetic sources and avoid running it parallel to mains power cables to reduce potential interference.
