Two USB-to-Ethernet adapters in one pack

This BENFEI pack contains two gray USB-to-RJ45 Gigabit network adapters, model 000317grey-2p. Each unit adds a wired 10/100/1000 Mbps Ethernet port to laptops, tablets or desktops that lack a built-in LAN socket. The pair is suited to households or small teams needing reliable wired links for several devices at once.

Check for a free USB-A port and cable category

Each adapter plugs into a standard USB-A socket and draws power from the bus, so verify that your computer has an available port. To achieve the rated 1000 Mbps throughput you must use Category 6 Ethernet cables; slower cables will limit the link speed. The adapters are backward compatible with USB 2.0 and 1.1 ports, though the maximum data rate will drop accordingly.

Driverless setup and cross-platform support

No driver installation is required for Chrome OS, macOS or Windows; the adapters enumerate automatically. Supported operating systems include Windows 7, 8, 8.1, 10, Vista, XP, macOS 10.6 through 10.12, Linux kernel 3.x and 2.6, Android and Chrome OS. Windows RT and Nintendo Switch are not supported. Connection and activity LEDs on each unit confirm link status at a glance.

Questions about this item

Does the pack include the Ethernet cables or must they be purchased separately?

The pack contains two USB to RJ45 adapters only; Cat 6 Ethernet cables are not included and must be bought separately to reach 1000 Mbps.

Is there any difference between the two adapters in this 000317grey-2p pack?

Both adapters are identical grey units with the same USB 3.0 interface, RJ45 port, 10/100/1000 Mbps support and driverless operation across Windows, Mac, Linux, Android and Chrome OS.

Will the 1000 Mbps headline speed actually appear on a USB 3.0 laptop?

Yes, the adapter uses the USB 3.0 5 Gbps bus so full Gigabit throughput is achievable when paired with Cat 6 cabling and a 1000 Mbps network port.
