Abstract
Power supply equipment includes circuitry for converting an input voltage to first and second DC voltages provided at respective connection points. One of the connection points is electrically coupled to a first cable having at its distal end a connector or connector adapter which has a shape and pin out compatible for detachably mating with a first electronic device. A second connection point is electrically coupled to a second cable having at its distal end a connector or connector adapter which has a shape and pin out compatible for detachably mating with a second electronic device. Either or both of the cables may be electrically coupled to their respective connection points via respective connectors which detachably mate with respective proximal end connectors on the cables. The power supply powers the first electronic device at the first DC voltage and the second electronic device at the second DC voltage.
