A method, of configuring contacts of a receptacle based on determined conditions is disclosed. The method may include receiving, via contacts of a receptacle, a plug communicatively coupled to a peripheral device. The method may also include receiving, via a control channel communicatively coupled to one or more of the contacts, a signal related to conditions of the peripheral device including a first bus type and a second bus type of the peripheral device. The method may also include determining, via a controller communicatively coupled to the control channel, the conditions of the peripheral device. The method may also include configuring the contacts based on the determined conditions, wherein configuring the contacts comprises routing a first set of contacts corresponding to the first bus type to a first interface and routing a second set of contacts corresponding to the second bus type to a second interface.
