The cable you show in the photo is a USB-C to lightning, like is found for the newer iPhone 11 Pro models. The latest iPad Pro would have the USB-C connector on both ends, as MichelPM states. The box you show in the photo is the wrong one for that device. You need this one, https://www.apple.com/shop/product/MLL82AM/A/usb-c-charge-cable-2-m?fnode=91

What year and model iPad Pro do you own?

The new iPad uses a USB-C to USB-C cable.

There is no Lightning connector involved.

You purchased the wrong cable.

That’s a USB-C to Lightning cable.

What are you attempting to connect the iPad to?
