No Sew USB-C 5Gbps Ethernet Adapter 46g

SKU CH-VNMH-75ZHY

Adds a 5 Gbps wired network link to USB-C devices with a compact 46 g aluminium adapter

  • Weight46 grams
  • Add a stable wired connection up to 5Gbps for fast downloads and low-latency calls
  • Connect to a USB 3.2 Gen2 or Thunderbolt port to minimise bottlenecks on older ports
  • Use CAT6A or higher cabling with 5GbE equipment to reach full 5Gbps speed
  • Works with Windows 10/11, macOS 10.6+, iPadOS, Linux kernel 3.2+ and ChromeOS
  • Lightweight 46g aluminum housing with heat dissipation for travel and daily use

USB-C 5Gbps Ethernet Adapter

This USB-C adapter adds a 5GBASE-T RJ45 port to laptops, tablets and desktops that lack built-in Ethernet. It targets users who need a stable wired link for large file transfers, low-latency video calls or high-speed LAN access without opening the chassis.

5Gbps throughput with auto-negotiation

The adapter delivers up to 5Gbps on CAT6A or better cabling paired with 5GbE-capable switches and will step down to 2.5Gbps, 1Gbps, 100Mbps or 10Mbps when the network cannot sustain the top rate. Full speed requires a USB 3.2 Gen2 or Thunderbolt host port; older USB-C ports become the bottleneck.

Aluminium housing with heat dissipation

A lightweight metal shell weighing 46 grams disperses heat during sustained loads, keeping operation stable in home, office or travel scenarios. The compact form factor plugs directly into the host USB-C port without blocking adjacent sockets, and the RJ45 jack accepts standard Ethernet cables for immediate connectivity.

Questions about this item

Will the 5Gbps adapter saturate a USB 3.2 Gen2 port on my laptop?

The adapter is designed for USB 3.2 Gen2 (10Gbps) or higher USBC/Thunderbolt ports; on older ports it auto-negotiates to the highest supported rate, so 5Gbps throughput is achievable on Gen2 but may be limited on Gen1.

How do I verify the link is running at 5Gbps after plugging it in?

Check the negotiated speed in your OS network settings or the switch port LEDs; the adapter auto-negotiates to the highest rate supported by the cabling and switch, showing 5Gbps when CAT6A and a 5GbE switch are present.

What cables and equipment must I supply to reach 5Gbps?

You need CAT6A or higher Ethernet cabling and a 5GbE-capable switch or router; the adapter itself provides the RJ45 port and USB-C connection, but cabling and network gear are not included.
