What is the full form of OTG?
The full name of OTG is On-The-Go. OTG is a USB (Universal Serial Bus) standard that allows USB devices to be connected. Without using a computer connection, USB OTG items can be connected.
You can connect your mobile phone or tablet to various gadgets using the USB OTG link. This link has your phone’s connector on one side and a USB-A port on the other side. If you use a simple USB link to connect the telephone to the computer, your phone will be the capacity device and your computer will be the main gadget. By attaching the OTG link, the central device will be your mobile phone.

- OTG A-device and OTG B-device, showing which side provides the connection power and which one is the first host.
