USB-C Gigabit Ethernet Adapter
This white adapter adds a single RJ-45 port to any computer with a USB-C connector. It supports 10/100/1000Base-T speeds over twisted-pair cabling. The device draws power from the host port and requires no external supply. Native drivers load automatically on supported operating systems.
macOS Chrome OS Windows 8.1 10
The adapter works out of the box on Mac OS 10.10 and later, Chrome OS, and Windows 8.1 or 10 and above. It suits users who need a wired link where Wi-Fi is weak or unavailable. Buyers whose laptops lack a USB-C port cannot use this model. Systems running older Windows or macOS versions without driver support should look elsewhere.
USB 3.1 Gen 1 Bandwidth Headroom
The USB 3.1 Gen 1 interface provides enough throughput for full gigabit line rate. Large file transfers and sustained streams run at wire speed without bottleneck. The single port limits connectivity to one wired network at a time. Environments requiring link aggregation or multiple simultaneous networks need a different solution.

Questions about this item
Does my laptop need a USB-C port to use this adapter?
Yes, the adapter plugs directly into a USB 3.1 Type-C port on the host computer.
Will it work with my older Windows 8.1 machine?
Native driver support covers Windows 8.1 and above, so the adapter functions without extra software on that OS.
How can I confirm the link is running at Gigabit speed after I plug it in?
Check the network status on your OS; a 1000Base-T connection indicates full Gigabit bandwidth.
