Devices and Simulators

I am running into a issue with my MacBook Pro 2016 Mid Year for not allowing me to connect my iPhone 12 max or any other iPhone or iPad to load. What I am experiencing is that it loads and then disconnects automatically, repeatedly.
My problem is with my macBook. What is strange is that I am able to connect all other items, like my 4 external hard drives.

MY ONLY QUESTION IS THIS. Is there another way that I can have Xcode Devices to be able to recognize my iPhone 12 Pro max besides by USB ??
I hate to have to buy another MacBook Pro or a expensive Mother board replacement. For preventing me to test my App on my Test Device.

For all those who reply, thank you in advance.
