Can I send digital signal over to the USB-C and power at the same time?Updated a year ago

Trulli Audio products offer a convenient solution for those who enjoy listening to music on-the-go. One common question we receive is whether it is possible to send a digital signal over to the USB-C port and power the device at the same time. The answer is yes, and there are two ways to do it.


The first option is to use a third-party USB-C splitter adapter. This adapter allows the Trulli charger to be plugged into it, and a USB-C cable from a laptop or PC that streams audio into the adapter can be connected to a JAM5. This enables you to stream audio while charging your device at the same time.


Alternatively, if you have a laptop or PC with a USB connection that supports a 15V, 2A PD profile, you can use it to stream digital audio into the JAM5 while charging the battery simultaneously. This option eliminates the need for an adapter, making it a simple and straightforward process.


Here are some step-by-step instructions for both options:


Option 1: Using a third-party USB-C splitter adapter


  1. Purchase a third-party USB-C splitter adapter that supports audio streaming and charging simultaneously.
  2. Connect the Trulli charger to the splitter adapter.
  3. Connect a USB-C cable from your laptop or PC to the splitter adapter.
  4. Connect the JAM5 to the splitter adapter.
  5. You can now stream audio while charging your device.


Option 2: Using a laptop or PC with a USB connection that supports a 15V, 2A PD profile


  1. Ensure that your laptop or PC has a USB connection that supports a 15V, 2A PD profile.
  2. Connect a USB-C cable from your laptop or PC to the JAM5.
  3. You can now stream digital audio and charge your device simultaneously.


Remember that it is important to use high-quality cables and adapters to ensure that you get the best possible audio quality and charging performance. With these simple solutions, you can enjoy uninterrupted music playback on your Trulli Audio device while ensuring that your battery stays charged.
