USB A/C to RJ45 Gigabit Adapter

The BENFEI 000317grey adds a standard RJ45 port to laptops, tablets or ultrabooks that lack onboard Ethernet. It connects through either a USB-A or USB-C plug and draws power from the bus so no external supply is needed. Driver-free installation works with native support in Windows, macOS, Chrome OS and Linux kernels.

Sustained Gigabit Throughput Over 5 Gbps Bus

The adapter negotiates 10/100/1000 Mbps speeds and runs at full gigabit rates over the USB 3.0 5 Gbps channel during long transfers, video conferences or streaming sessions. Wake-on-LAN, full-duplex and half-duplex modes, crossover detection, backpressure routing and auto MDIX correction remain active under continuous load. IEEE 802.3az Energy Efficient Ethernet reduces idle power draw.

Aluminium Shell With Nylon Cable For Daily Carry

An aluminium alloy housing shields the controller from EMI and handles repeated insertion cycles in a bag or on a desk. The integrated nylon-sheathed cable resists kinking when the adapter is plugged into tight ports or routed around hinges. Link and activity LEDs give instant visual confirmation of connection status without software checks.

Questions about this item

Does the adapter get hot or draw much power when I leave it plugged in all day?

It is USB powered with no external supply needed and supports IEEE 802.3az Energy Efficient Ethernet to reduce consumption during idle periods.

What cables or ports must I already have to reach the 1000Mbps rate?

You need a CAT6 or higher Ethernet cable and a USB 3.0 port on the host; the adapter also works with USB 2.0 or 1.1 at lower speeds.

Will it work reliably next to my older USB 2.0 hub and legacy Windows 7 laptop?

Yes, it is backward compatible with USB 2.0 and 1.1 and supports Windows 7, Vista and XP through native drivers.
