Abstract: A docking station according to embodiments provides power to an Information Handling System (IHS) coupled to the docking station. The docking station includes a first power circuit supporting a first power output according to a power delivery protocol limited to a first power level. The docking station also includes a second power circuit supporting a second power output for providing the input power of the docking station to the IHS. A controller of the docking station determines whether the IHS requires power using the power delivery protocol and selects the operation of the first or second power circuit. The docking station may support dual of such selectable power pathways using a docking cable joined from two individual cables, where each cable provides a separate power and/or data coupling. The docking station thus supports powering devices according to a power delivery protocol or using the input power to the docking station.

Abstract: Systems and methods for providing a visual indication of cable connection status. A method may include determining whether an Information Handling System (IHS) has established data communications using one of a plurality of different types of protocols supported by a cable and providing, on the cable, a visual indication of the type of protocol being used and/or an amount of power delivered via the cable. A cable may include a plurality of conductors, a controller coupled to the plurality of conductors, and a plurality of LEDs coupled to the controller. The controller may: determine whether an IHS coupled to the cable has established data communication with another device via the cable using one of a plurality of different types of protocols supported by the cable; and provide a visual indication of the type of protocol being used in the data communication and/or power delivered via the cable.

Abstract: Systems and methods for automatically pairing an Information Handling System (IHS) to a selected one of a plurality of Workspace Managing Devices (WMDs) in a shared work environment are described. In an illustrative, non-limiting embodiment, an IHS may include an Embedded Controller (EC) and a memory coupled to the EC, the memory having program instructions stored thereon that, upon execution by the EC, cause the IHS to: perform a first wireless communication with a charging mat coupled to one of a plurality of WMDs disposed in a shared work environment, and establish a wireless connection with the WMD based, at least in part, upon first information exchanged over the first wireless communication.

Abstract: Embodiments of systems and methods for selectively enabling and disabling protocols of a USB-C port are provided herein. According to one embodiment, a method for selectively enabling one or more protocols of a USB-C port on an information handling system (IHS) includes determining, upon system boot, if the IHS is connected via the USB-C port to a peripheral device that is authorized for use with the information handling system. If the peripheral device is not authorized for use with the IHS, the method may disable all protocols of the USB-C port. If the peripheral device is authorized for use with the IHS, the method may enable one or more protocols of the USB-C port.

Abstract: An information handling system receives power from a reversible power cable by selectively configuring outer pins to provide power or communication with a middle pin providing ground. A power manager of an information handling system embedded controller uses a low level of power input to determine which outer pin provides power and which provides communication, and then configures the connector to route power at a high level to the system charger for powering the information handling system.
