USB-C Gigabit Ethernet Adapter for wired networking

This compact adapter adds a Gigabit RJ45 port to any USB-C device that lacks a built-in Ethernet socket. It is aimed at laptop, tablet and ultrabook users who need a stable wired connection for work, streaming or large file transfers. The aluminium housing keeps the unit light and durable for daily carry.

Plug-and-play setup with driver-free operation

Installation is as simple as inserting the adapter into a free USB-C port and connecting an Ethernet cable; no drivers or extra software are required on supported operating systems. The most common issue is hitting only 10 or 100 Mbps because the host port is USB 2.0 or the cable is below CAT6 standard. Ensure the port runs at USB 3.0 and use CAT6 or better cabling to reach the full 1000 Mbps rate.

Check your host port and cable before ordering

Verify that the device you plan to use offers a USB-C port with USB 3.0 signalling; Thunderbolt 3 ports also work. A USB 2.0-only port will limit throughput to 100 Mbps. You also need a CAT6 or higher Ethernet cable to achieve gigabit speeds. If your hardware provides only USB 2.0 or you rely on older CAT5e cabling, the adapter will still function but not at its rated 1000 Mbps.

Questions about this item

How do I know the adapter is delivering a full 1000Mbps link after I plug it in?

Check the network status on your device; it should report a 1 Gbps connection. For that speed you need a CAT6 or better cable and a USB 3.0 Type-C port, not USB 2.0.

What cables or accessories come in the box, and what must I supply?

The adapter itself is included. You must provide your own CAT6 or higher Ethernet cable to reach gigabit rates.

Which host port standard should I use — USB 2.0 or USB 3.0 Type-C — to get the rated throughput?

Use a USB 3.0 Type-C port; USB 2.0 will limit the connection well below the 1000Mbps capability.
