USB-C USB Type-C Specification 1.0 defines a smaller reversible-plug USB connector that interfaces with both hosts and devices, replacing USB Type-B and Type-A connectors and cables with a scalable standard. Its two most notable features are the Alternate Mode and Power Delivery functions. Alternate Mode allows for the USB-C connector to transmit previously separate interfaces such as DisplayPort, MHL, HDMI, PCI Express and Base-T Ethernet. The Power Delivery function enables the connector and the cable to serve as a charger for devices ranging from mobile phones up to laptops.
