1. A method for configuring a USB-C output setting in a host device, the method comprising:
receiving, by the host device, a signal from a display device;
determining, by an embedded controller within the host device and based on the signal, whether the display device connected to the host device is a USB-C device;
configuring, by the embedded controller, the USB-C output setting in the embedded controller to a first setting based on determining that the display device is the USB-C device, wherein the USB-C output setting controls USB-C alternate modes of the host device;
transmitting, by the embedded controller, the first setting to a host type-C controller;
causing, by the embedded controller, the host type-C controller to transmit the first setting to a device type-C controller, wherein the first setting is configured to adapt the device type-C controller for transmitting data using four lanes of the device type-C controller; and
causing, by the host type-C controller, the device type-C controller to transmit the first setting to a second device type-C controller wherein the first setting is configured to adapt the second device type-C controller for transmitting second data using four lanes of the second device type-C controller.
