  • Page 27: Frequently Asked Questions

    • Our Dell dock is designed to operate on AC power only and it does not support system power source back (powered by system Type-C port). A power loss event will make all devices on the dock fail to work. Even when you restore the AC power, the dock may still not function properly because the dock still needs to negotiate proper power contract with the system's Type-C port and establish a system EC-to-dock-EC connection.
