USB-C Gigabit Ethernet adapter

The IOGEAR GUC3C01B adds a wired RJ-45 network port to any device with a USB 3.1 Gen 1 Type-C connector. It supports 10/100/1000 Mbps transfer rates and draws power directly from the USB bus, so no external supply is required. Compatible operating systems include Windows 7 through 10 and Mac OS X 10.7 or later.

Travellers and thin-and-light laptops

Ultraportable notebooks, tablets and recent MacBook or Chromebook models that lack a built-in Ethernet jack benefit from the compact aluminium housing and braided nylon cable. Desktop PCs already equipped with onboard Gigabit Ethernet, or users whose USB-C port only carries USB 2.0 signals, will not gain additional wired bandwidth from this adapter.

USB 3.1 Gen 1 Type-C port required

The single specification that determines compatibility is the presence of a USB 3.1 Gen 1 Type-C connector on the host device; without it the adapter cannot operate at its rated 1000 Mbps speed.

Questions about this item

What sustained throughput does the USB 3.1 Gen 1 link allow on the GUC3C01B?

Does the adapter get hot or draw extra power during all-day use?

It is powered entirely by the USB-C port with no external supply, and the aluminum housing helps dissipate heat during continuous operation.
