Abstract
Multiport adapters include a power connection port, a host connection port, a peripheral device connection port, a controller, and a power supply circuit. The controller is configured to receive, through the power connection port, first power information regarding power suppliable from a power supply device to the multiport adapter, determine a maximum power value in the first power information, transmit a message requesting the power supply device to supply power of the maximum power value to the multiport adapter, determine a third power value obtained by subtracting, from the maximum power value, a first power value consumed by the multiport adapter and a second power value set to be supplied to a peripheral device, generate, based on the third power value, second power information regarding power suppliable from the multiport adapter to a host device, and transmit the second power information to the host device through the host connection port.
