Zusammenfassung:Embodiments herein relate to a module which can be inserted into or removed from a computing device by a user. The module includes an input-output port which is configured for a desired specification, such as USB-A, USB-C, Thunderbolt, DisplayPort or HDMI. The port can be provided on an expansion card such as an M.2 card for communicating with a host platform. The host platform can communicate with different types of modules in a standardized way so that complexity and costs are reduced. In another aspect, with a dual port module, the host platform can concurrently send/receive power through one port and send/receive data from the other port.
