This USB-C to Ethernet adapter provides a reliable wired network connection for devices with limited USB-C ports. It supports 2.5GbE speeds over existing Cat5e cables, eliminating the need for expensive upgrades to Cat6A or fiber. The adapter is ideal for users who need faster and more secure network access for tasks like large file transfers, video conferencing, and cloud synchronization. Its slim design makes it suitable for office environments and hot desks, where portability and space efficiency are important.

The adapter includes a 100W PD pass-through port, allowing users to charge their devices while maintaining an Ethernet connection. This feature is especially useful for laptops and tablets that rely on a single USB-C port for both charging and connectivity. The device is compatible with a wide range of operating systems, including Windows 7 and newer, Linux with kernel 4.19+, macOS, iOS, and ChromeOS. It works seamlessly with MacBooks, Chromebooks, and hardware platforms using Intel, AMD, ARM (Snapdragon), and Apple Silicon processors.

The Realtek chipset ensures broad compatibility and support for advanced networking features like Wake-on-LAN (WoL), VLAN, PXE Boot, and 16K Jumbo Frames (except on macOS). These capabilities are particularly beneficial for IT professionals managing large networks or deploying systems remotely. The adapter supports auto-negotiation for optimal performance across different network speeds, from 10Mbps to 2.5Gbps. This flexibility makes it suitable for both legacy and modern network infrastructures.

The included 6-inch (15cm) cable allows for convenient placement of the adapter near the device without requiring additional cable management. It is bus-powered, meaning it does not require an external power source, and is compatible with Thunderbolt devices. Users can easily install the necessary drivers through automatic prompts on Windows systems or via the manufacturer’s website for other operating systems. No internet access is required during installation.
