USB-C 2.5Gbps Ethernet Adapter

The Dell NT-25GA adds a 2.5 Gigabit Ethernet port to any device with a USB-C connector. It is aimed at laptop and tablet users who need wired network speeds beyond standard Gigabit without opening the chassis. The integrated cable keeps the setup compact for mobile workstations.

Upgrade from 1GbE USB adapters

This adapter replaces older USB 3.0 Gigabit dongles when the network infrastructure supports 2.5GBASE-T. The jump is worth it for users transferring large files over Cat5e or better cabling at distances up to 100 meters. It requires a host port capable of USB 3.0 5Gbps or faster to saturate the link.

Bus-powered aluminium dongle

The unit draws power from the host USB-C port so no external supply is needed. An aluminium shell provides durability and heat dissipation during sustained transfers. Driver support is available for Windows, macOS and Linux, with UEFI UNDI and PXE boot on compatible systems.

Questions about this item

What USB-C port version does the Dell NT-25GA need to reach its 2.5Gbps rated speed?

It requires a USB 3.0 (5Gbps) or faster port such as USB 3.1 or USB 3.2 Gen 1x1; slower ports will limit throughput.

Which driver step is often missed when setting up the adapter on Windows, macOS or Linux?

The adapter works out of the box on many systems, but installing the vendor-supplied driver for Windows, macOS or Linux enables full 2.5GbE performance and features like Wake-On-LAN.

What cable category and maximum run length are specified for maintaining 2.5Gbps speeds?

Cat5E or better cable supports the rated 2.5Gbps up to 100 meters with compliant network hardware using the IEEE 802.3bz standard.
