Benefits of USB-C Power Delivery

The USB-C PD specification is universally adopted, making it easy for users to connect a wide range of devices without worrying about compatibility.
Key features and benefits include:
PD20W – Fast charging 20W USB Power Delivery.
3A Independent Charging per port
4.2A Shared Output – An intelligent chip that adjusts output based on connected device load.
Twin Type C Ports – Two ports, ideal for the increasing number of devices using the USB C interface.
Three Pin Safety Shutters – Standard safety shutters for enhanced protection.
Easy Retro Fit – Easily replaces any standard or USB socket without the need for a deeper back box.
