USB-C Gigabit Adapter with 100W Pass-Through

This USB-C to Ethernet adapter adds a 1Gbps RJ-45 network port to laptops, tablets and phones that have a USB-C connection. It draws power from the host and includes a 100W Power Delivery pass-through so the same port can charge the device while the link is active. The six-inch attached cable keeps the dongle close to the chassis. Compatible with Windows 7 and later, Linux kernel 4.19 and later, macOS, iOS and ChromeOS on Intel, AMD, ARM and Apple Silicon platforms.

Suits Port-Limited Devices Needing Wired Ethernet

Ideal for ultraportables, tablets and phones that lack a built-in RJ-45 jack but have a USB-C port available. The pass-through charging means users with a single USB-C socket do not lose power while wired. Not suitable for systems that only offer legacy USB-A ports or for installations that require a longer cable run than the fixed six-inch lead provides.

100W Power Delivery Pass-Through Capability

The adapter’s USB-C female port accepts up to 100W of Power Delivery input, allowing the host device to charge at full speed while the Gigabit Ethernet link is in use. This single specification determines whether the product can replace a dedicated charger on a port-constrained machine. If the host demands more than 100W or does not support PD, the pass-through will not meet the requirement.

Questions about this item

Does the adapter include a power supply or does the 100W PD pass-through need a separate charger?

The adapter provides a 100W PD pass-through port so you can connect your own USB-C charger; no power supply is included in the box.

Should I choose this model or a version without pass-through charging?

Choose this 1GPD3-USB-C-ETHERNET model when you need to keep the USB-C port free for 100W charging while using the 1Gbps RJ-45 connection.

Will the 1Gbps Ethernet speed actually be reached over a Cat5e cable with the 5Gbps USB 3.2 Gen 1 link?

Yes, the 5Gbps USB 3.2 Gen 1 bandwidth comfortably supports the 1Gbps Ethernet rate over Cat5e or better cabling.
