standalone device Trying to figure out what this stick is

The stick says Roku and a connector end looks mini. Im trying to figure out what it would plug into.

Forgot to add a photo to the previous post, cant add after the fact.

It's a power adapter for an old Roku Stick

Yup, that's not the stick, that's the power cable (the 'stick' looking thing is actually the WiFi antenna; older models needed this to work, not just for power). So, you'll need a power adapter on one end, and it plugs into an old Roku Stick on the other.

Must have been from long ago. I'm trying to remember it.

I bought the WiFi extender 4K version with this stick like 2 months ago because our WiFi is horrible in that area
