USB 3.0 Gigabit Ethernet Adapter

The ESTONE adapter adds a Gigabit RJ45 network port to a laptop or desktop through a USB 3.0 Type-A connection. It is backward compatible with USB 2.0 and 1.1 standards and complies with IEEE 802.3, 802.3u and 802.3ab specifications. The device supports Energy Efficient Ethernet under IEEE 802.3az.

For replacing a failed port

It suits users who need to replace a broken internal network card or require an additional separately-routable Ethernet connection for file transfers. Buyers whose systems lack a USB Type-A port, or who rely on Windows RT, Android, Wii, Wii U or Nintendo Switch, cannot use this adapter.

USB 3.0 Type-A upstream port required

The single specification that decides compatibility is the presence of a USB 3.0 Type-A upstream port on the host computer. Supported operating systems include Windows 2000, XP, Vista, 7, 8 (32/64-bit) and Mac OS 10.6 or higher. No driver support exists for the excluded platforms.

Questions about this item

How do I confirm the adapter is working after plugging it into a USB 3.0 port?

The operating system should detect a new network interface and show a link light on the RJ45 port when an Ethernet cable is connected.

What comes in the box and what must I purchase separately?

The adapter itself is included; you must supply your own Ethernet cable to connect to the RJ45 port.

Which version should I choose for a Mac running OS 10.6 or higher?

The USB 3.0 Gigabit option supports Mac OS 10.6 and later, providing full Gigabit Ethernet speeds.
