Your computer does not have 15W available that the Solo10G requires, but instead only 7.5W.

When plugging external devices into a MacBook Pro, the 15-inch and 13-inch models with four Thunderbolt 3 ports will provide 15W only to the first two devices and then 7.5W to the second two devices in the order that they are plugged in, irrespective of port and device type. The 13-inch model with only two Thunderbolt 3 ports will provide 15W to the first device and 7.5W to the second. Try disconnecting all the devices and plug in the Solo10G Thunderbolt 3 Adapter first.

Some PCs do not supply 15W to all of the Thunderbolt 3 ports. Check you computer specifications for details. Make sure the Solo10G is the first device plugged into the computer.
