Compact Gigabit Adapter
The CableCreation USB-C to Ethernet adapter adds a 1000Mbps wired network port to Thunderbolt 3 or USB-C devices. It targets laptop, tablet and smartphone users who need a more reliable connection than Wi-Fi for downloads, gaming or HD streaming. The plug-and-play design works with Mac OS, Windows 10 and Linux without extra drivers. It also replaces a damaged onboard Ethernet jack on supported machines.
Driver-Free Installation
No software or driver installation is required; the adapter is recognised automatically on Mac OS, Windows 10 and Linux systems. Simply connect the USB-C plug to a Thunderbolt 3 or USB-C port and attach an RJ45 cable for immediate network access. The only common issue arises when the host device lacks a compatible USB-C or Thunderbolt 3 port, preventing the adapter from functioning.
1000Mbps Headroom
The adapter delivers up to 1000Mbps wired throughput and is downward compatible with 100Mbps, 10Mbps and 1Mbps networks. It comfortably handles large file transfers, HD video streaming and online gaming on gigabit infrastructure. Performance is limited by the host device's USB-C or Thunderbolt 3 bandwidth and the connected network switch, so speeds above 1000Mbps are not supported.

Questions about this item
How can I confirm the adapter is delivering a 1000 Mbps wired link after plugging it into my USB-C device?
The status LED on the adapter will light solid when a gigabit connection is negotiated; your OS network panel will also report a 1000 Mbps link speed.
What comes in the package and is anything else required to get online?
The box contains one USB-C to Gigabit Ethernet adapter; no driver disc or external power supply is needed because the adapter draws power from the USB-C port.
Which CableCreation USB-C Ethernet model should I choose for a MacBook Pro 2019 and a Dell XPS 13?
This single model supports both devices — it works with Thunderbolt 3 and standard USB-C ports on macOS, Windows 10 and Linux.
