Thunderbolt to RJ-45 fibre cable

The Total Micro Technologies MD463LL/A-TM adds a gigabit Ethernet port to Thunderbolt-equipped Macs using a fibre optic link. It connects a Mini DisplayPort male Thunderbolt plug to an RJ-45 female jack for network device support.

Practical limits of Thunderbolt 1 Gbit/s

The 1 Gbit/s data transfer rate caps throughput at standard gigabit Ethernet speeds. The cable suits users who need a single wired network connection but not those who require multi-gigabit or aggregated bandwidth.

Questions about this item

Should I choose this Thunderbolt-to-RJ-45 adapter or a USB-based gigabit adapter?

This adapter connects directly to a Thunderbolt port, leaving USB ports free for other peripherals while delivering a 1 Gbit/s wired link.

Will the 1 Gbit/s rating actually give me full gigabit throughput on my iMac?

The link negotiates at 1 Gbit/s; real-world throughput reaches typical gigabit Ethernet levels once the macOS driver is active.
