A USB OTG (On-The-Go) cable is a type of USB cable that allows devices like smartphones or tablets to act as a host for other USB devices, such as flash drives, keyboards, or mice. This functionality enables users to transfer files directly between devices or use peripherals without needing a computer. OTG cables typically have a standard USB-A connector on one end and a micro-USB or USB-C connector on the other, depending on the device. This feature enhances the versatility of mobile devices, making them more functional for various tasks.
