Two-port USB 3.0 Gigabit Ethernet kit

This two-pack supplies a pair of gold-plated USB 3.0 male A to RJ45 female adapters that add a wired network port to laptops, ultrabooks or tablets. Each unit supports 10, 100 and 1000 Mbps Ethernet over a USB 3.0 link rated at up to 5 Gbps and remains compatible with USB 2.0 and 1.1 hosts.

Suits users adding wired LAN to multiple devices

Ideal for IT teams, home-office workers or travellers who need reliable Ethernet on several machines that lack a built-in RJ45 socket. Not suited for buyers who require driver-free operation on Windows 7, XP, Vista, macOS or Linux, nor for anyone needing Windows RT or Android compatibility.

Driver CD and multi-OS support included

The bundle includes a driver disc so Windows 7, XP, Vista, macOS and Linux users can install the required software once, while Windows 8, 8.1 and 10 work without extra drivers. Wake-on-LAN, crossover auto-correction and IEEE 802.3az power management are enabled once the driver is loaded.

Questions about this item

Does my laptop need a USB 3.0 Type-A port to use the CableCreation adapter?

The adapter plugs into a USB 3.0 male Type-A port and also works with USB 2.0 or 1.1 ports at reduced speed.

Will the adapter negotiate 10/100 Mbps speeds with my older 100 Mbps switch?

Yes, it supports 10/100/1000 Mbps Ethernet and maintains backwards compatibility with 10/100 Mbps networks.

How do I confirm the link is running at Gigabit speed after installing the driver?

Check the network adapter status in your OS; it should show a 1000 Mbps connection when linked to a Gigabit switch or router.
