| Zusammenfassung: | A receptacle which is communicatively coupled to a host computing device and a method of receiving a plug at a receptacle are disclosed. The plug is received at the receptacle, the receptacle including contacts disposed with a rotational symmetry about a center point of the receptacle. Any orientation of the plug inserted into the receptacle is determined via detection circuitry. A connection path coupled to the contacts is changed via selection control circuitry, based on the orientation of the plug. |
