Ultra High Speed 2.5G Ethernet Adapter

The ankmax UC312G2 adds a wired 2.5Gbps Ethernet port to any device with a USB-C connector. It delivers a maximum download rate of approximately 2338 Mbps for stable online work, streaming and gaming.

Who this suits and who should look elsewhere

Ideal for laptop or tablet users who need a faster, more reliable link than Wi-Fi and whose hardware includes a USB-C port. Not suited for devices that only offer USB-A unless a separate adapter is used, or for networks limited to 1Gbps where the extra headroom cannot be used.

Deciding specification: 2.5Gbps USB-C to RJ45

The single figure that determines fit is the 2.5Gbps Ethernet rate over USB-C. If your switch, router or ISP connection tops out at 1Gbps, this adapter will still work but will not exceed that lower ceiling.

Questions about this item

Will the ankmax UC312G2 work with my older laptop that only has USB 3.0 Type-C ports?

Yes, the adapter uses a USB Type-C connector and is plug-and-play on Windows 8 and 10, so it will operate at up to 2.5Gbps on USB 3.0 or newer ports.

How can I confirm the ankmax UC312G2 is delivering the advertised 2.5Gbps link after I plug it in?

The LED blinks yellow and lights solid green when a link is active; you can also verify the negotiated speed in your OS network settings, which should show 2.5 Gbps.

Does the ankmax UC312G2 package include any cables or do I need to buy a Cat 6 patch cord separately?

The adapter itself is the only item in the box; you must supply your own RJ45 Ethernet cable to complete the connection.
