  • Double network speed with 2.5 Gbps capability
  • Hybrid cable fits USB-C and USB-A ports
  • Works on existing Cat 5e cabling
  • Supports Windows 11, 10, 8.x, 7, macOS 10.7+, Linux 3.2+
  • Driver install may be needed on older systems

What it does

The PISKEKAT 2.5 Gbps USB Ethernet Adapter adds a 2.5 Gigabit RJ45 port to laptops and desktops that lack a wired network jack. It targets users who need faster file transfers, smoother video calls and more stable streaming than a standard Gigabit adapter can provide. The hybrid 2-in-1 cable works with both USB-C and USB-A hosts, so one adapter fits modern and legacy ports alike.

Deciding specification

Full 2.5 Gbps throughput requires a USB 3.0 connection; plugging into USB 2.0 will limit speed to Gigabit levels. The adapter relies on Cat 5e or better cabling already in the walls, so no rewiring is needed when paired with a 2.5 Gbps-capable switch or router. Driver installation may be required on Windows 7, older macOS releases or Linux kernels before 3.2.

Bundled cable benefit

The integrated 2-in-1 cable eliminates the need to carry separate USB-C and USB-A dongles or remember which converter belongs to which machine. It also removes a potential failure point where a detachable adapter could loosen during travel. The single tether keeps the RJ45 port firmly aligned with the host port for a more reliable link.

Questions about this item

What does the 2.5 Gbps rating deliver on a typical laptop?

It doubles the throughput of a standard Gigabit adapter when connected to a 2.5 Gbps switch or router, giving faster file copies, smoother video calls and steadier streaming.

Which USB standard caps the speed, and what does it require?

The hybrid cable works with USB-C or USB-A ports, but USB 3.0 is required to reach the full 2.5 Gbps rate; slower ports will limit throughput.

What physical space does the 2-in-1 cable need at the laptop side?

The adapter plugs into a single USB-C or USB-A port and presents an RJ45 jack for the Ethernet cable; no extra mounting hardware is needed.
