ABSTRACT:
Methods and apparatuses are described for improving information transfer over a universal serial bus (USB). In some embodiments, an apparatus includes a USB-compliant near-end link and control logic coupled with the USB-compliant near-end link. The control logic may translate a USB-compliant reflective signal received from a USB host to a terminated signal. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
