Abstract
This document describes the nSynC-Staging adapter, designed for select USB-C mobile devices
which use a USB-C receptacle for charging and data.
The nSynC-Staging permits select mobile devices to access Ethernet while being charged
(SimulCharge).
This product's mode of operation charges your mobile device battery to 100% as long as external
power is attached. This mode of operation supports Docking Detect, which ensures the mobile
devices enter the correct state during a "hot connect" to the LAVA product.
Alternatively, the adapter can be used in OTG (On-The-Go) mode where the mobile devices
have access to the Ethernet connect but run off their own batteries.
This document describes the connectors and configuration for the nSynC-Staging adapter.
