Some Dell XPS systems do not support that TBT2<->TBT3 adapter. I think I
tried this on XPS 15 9550 and XPS 13 9365 and in both cases it is
rejected. I think it has something to do with the PD controller
firmware. Same goes if you Plug TB16 dock and to that dock then connect
the adapter + device.
Mario probably has more input about this one.
