Exact-device role map

The same connector shape can do different jobs on one device.

22 exact-scoped profiles in this release contain at least one repeated connector form with source-documented role differences. These are warnings to inspect location and labeling, not compatibility conclusions.

A difference in role is not a complete capability matrix.

The page only compares roles already recorded in exact-device source evidence. It does not infer unlisted USB modes, display limits, charging behavior, cable support or interoperability.
