Is the cable shielded against interference?
It features a standard PVC jacket, which is appropriate for home entertainment, but it is not specifically rated as high-end shielded audio/video cable.
What is the maximum voltage this cable supports?
The cable supports an input voltage of up to 250V.

Troubleshooting
Device is not receiving power
Ensure the cable is firmly pushed into both the device and the wall outlet. Check if the wall outlet is functional by testing another device.
The C7 connector feels loose
Verify that the device port is not obstructed by dust or debris. Ensure you are using the correct coupler type, as some devices require a C5 or C13 connector instead.
