Abstract:
An apparatus configured to couple to a universal serial bus (USB) 3.0 connector. The apparatus includes a management controller configured to couple to the USB 3.0 connector. The management controller is configured to detect from behavior on the D+ and D− pins of the USB 3.0 connector whether a device plugged into the USB 3.0 connector is a conventional USB 3.0 device or an optical USB device, where the optical USB device employs one of the D+ and D− pins of the USB 3.0 connector to transmit a data signal and the other to transmit a clock signal.
