Usage recommendations

Place the host device and connected peripherals within the approximate 20 m range and avoid large physical obstacles or sources of strong radio interference to maintain stable connections. For audio or low-latency applications, confirm codec and profile support on both host and peripheral devices. If connection issues occur, try a different USB-C port, reconnect the adapter or test it on another compatible device to verify compatibility.
