Always ensure all equipment is powered off before making or breaking connections to prevent damage to the devices or the cable.

• Avoid placing heavy objects on the cable, which can cause internal damage.
• Do not expose the cable to extreme temperatures or moisture.
• When disconnecting, always pull from the connector housing, not the cable itself, to prevent strain on the connections.
