Usage recommendations

For stable video performance, use a high-quality HDMI cable and verify the host device supports USB-C display output. When using wired Ethernet for heavy data transfers or video conferencing, ensure the network cable and switch/router support required speeds. Keep the adapter in a ventilated area during extended use and disconnect if excessive heat or connectivity issues occur.
