Powering the Multiport Adapter
USB Power Delivery 3.0
Fast Role Swap:
A Fast Role Swap function is available when using Power Delivery 3.0. This function
prevents USB data disruption when switching power sources (bus power to USB-C
power adapter or USB-C power adapter to bus power). For this function to work, the
host laptop must also support Power Delivery 3.0.
Bus Power:
The
Multiport Adapter
is powered by the
Host Computer’s
USB-C Port
and does not
require a separate power adapter.
1. Connect the
USB-C Connector
on the
Multiport Adapter
to a
USB-C Port
on the
Host Computer
.
2. The Host Computer’s operating system will automatically detect and install the
required driver.
Note:
Host Computers that have a USB-C port that supports a maximum of 4.5W of
Bus Power will only get RJ45 Port functionality. All other ports on the Multiport Adapter
will be disabled due to insufficient Bus Power.
USB-C Power Adapter:
The
Multiport Adapter
is powered using the
Host Computer’s USB-C Power
Adapter
. The maximum power delivery input is 95W. The
Multiport Adapter
requires
10W of Power Delivery capacity to power the
Multiport Adapter
and its connected
devices leaving a maximum power delivery of 85W for laptop charging.
Note:
The
Multiport Adapter’s
Maximum Power Delivery is based on the limitations
of the
Host Computer’s USB-C Power Adapter
.
1. Connect the
Multiport Adapter’s USB-C Connector
to a
USB-C Port
on the
Host
Computer
.
2. Connect the
USB-C Connector
on the
Host Computer’s Power Adapter
to the
