USB 3.0 Gigabit Adapter for Computers

This compact adapter adds a wired Gigabit Ethernet port to any device with a USB 3.0 interface. It suits laptops, tablets, and desktops that lack a built-in RJ45 socket or have a damaged one. The adapter draws power directly from the USB port so no external supply is needed. It is not for buyers who need Wi-Fi or Bluetooth connectivity.

10/100/1000 Mbps Auto-Sensing Speed

The single specification that determines suitability is the 10/100/1000 Mbps auto-sensing capability. It negotiates the highest common rate with the router or switch automatically. Backward compatibility with USB 2.0 ports is supported, though throughput will be limited by the older bus. Buyers whose infrastructure only runs at 10 Mbps will still gain a reliable wired link.

Driver-Free Plug & Play Operation

Built-in drivers enable immediate operation on Windows 10, 8.1, 8, 7, and Chrome OS without manual installation. Auto MDIX detects straight or crossover cables so either type works. Checksum offload reduces CPU load during data transfers. The adapter does not support Windows RT or Android devices.

Questions about this item

What does the 10/100/1000 Mbps rating mean when the adapter is plugged into a USB 3.0 port?

The adapter auto-senses the network speed and runs at up to 1000 Mbps over USB 3.0, falling back to 100 Mbps or 10 Mbps if the switch or router only supports those rates.

Which USB standard does this adapter use, and what speed does it limit the connection to?

It uses USB 3.0, which provides enough bandwidth for the full 1000 Mbps Ethernet link; it also works on USB 2.0 ports but will be capped at the lower USB 2.0 throughput.

What physical port does the adapter need on the computer, and what cable plugs into the other side?

The adapter needs a free USB-A 3.0 port on the computer, and a standard RJ45 Ethernet cable connects the adapter to the router, modem or switch.
