USB-C Gigabit Ethernet Cable 2m

The Plugable USBC-E1000-2M is a 2-metre cable that combines a USB-C plug with a Gigabit Ethernet male connector in one piece. It is built for laptop, tablet and phone users who need a stable wired network link without carrying a separate dongle.

1000BASE-T Gigabit Ethernet port

The cable terminates in an 8P8C modular jack rated for 1000BASE-T at 1000Mbps. It connects directly to Ethernet switches or router ports and will negotiate down to the link speed of the port it is plugged into.

Windows 7 and later, macOS 11 and later, ChromeOS 100 and later, and Linux kernel 3.9 and later include the necessary driver for the Realtek RTL8153E controller. If the cable is not recognised automatically, the driver can be downloaded from the manufacturer's site.

Questions about this item

How fast is the 1000Mbps Ethernet link in daily use?

The adapter provides a 1Gbps Ethernet connection so large file copies and backups run at wired Gigabit speeds instead of Wi‑Fi rates.

What does the USB‑C 5Gbps host requirement mean for my laptop?

The cable uses a USB‑C 5Gbps interface; it works with USB4 and Thunderbolt ports but the Ethernet side is capped at 1Gbps.

Will the 2m cable reach my dock and fit the RJ45 port?

The 2m length reaches across desks or racks and the 8P8C plug fits standard switch and router Ethernet ports directly.
