USB 3.0 Gigabit Ethernet adapter

This AddOn USB 3.0 to RJ-45 adapter adds a wired network port to any system with a free USB 3.0 or USB 2.0 socket. It delivers a full gigabit connection rated at 10/100/1000Base-T and supports Wake-on-Lan plus Green Ethernet features. Compatibility is confirmed for both Windows and Mac OS environments. The compact black dongle is tested and guaranteed to work with the target application.

Suitable for laptops or desktops lacking

Users who need a reliable wired link for docking, imaging or secure networks will find this adapter a simple plug-and-play solution. It also serves well for temporary troubleshooting or moving between workstations. Buyers who require multi-gigabit speeds beyond 1 Gbps or additional USB ports on the same device should look at a different product class. The adapter provides a single Ethernet connection only.

10/100/1000Base-T speed over USB 3.0 interface

The decisive specification is the 10/100/1000Base-T rating, which confirms genuine gigabit throughput when connected to a USB 3.0 port. At USB 2.0 the link falls back to 10/100 Mbps, so the host port type determines the real-world ceiling. Verify that your system offers USB 3.0 if you need the full 1000 Mbps capability. No driver installation is required on supported operating systems.

Questions about this item

Will the USB 3.0 adapter work if my laptop only has USB 2.0 ports?

Yes, the adapter is compatible with both USB 3.0 and USB 2.0 ports, though the 1000Base-T gigabit speed requires a USB 3.0 connection.

How do I confirm the 10/100/1000Base-T link is active after plugging in the RJ-45 cable?

The adapter’s LED indicators will light to show a live 10, 100 or 1000 Mbps connection once the ethernet cable is seated.

Does the box include an ethernet cable or do I need to buy one separately?

Only the USB 3.0 male to RJ-45 female adapter is supplied; a standard RJ-45 ethernet cable must be purchased separately.
