MR1100 USB3

Dear Experts,

 

I would like to know both of USB ports support USB3.0/USB3.1?

I mean USB typeC port and USB standard port.

 

Thanks in advance.

    The typeC port supports USB3.1 data rates (super-speed).

    It is used for charging and USB tethering to the MR1100 (similar to how you would connect a phone).

    This port acts as a power sink only and does not support power delivery (can't source power).

     

    The typeA (standard) port is USB2.0 and can source power.

    It can be used to connect a USB storage device (eg. Flash drive) or as a jump-boost port to provide power to another USB device such as a phone.
