USB-C to Gigabit Ethernet adapter

The Dell 470-ABND adds a wired network port to any device that has a USB-C socket. It is aimed at laptop, tablet or desktop users who need a stable Gigabit link without opening the chassis or installing an internal card.

Gigabit link over USB-C bus

The adapter negotiates up to Gigabit Ethernet speeds, but actual throughput is limited by the host USB-C controller and its protocol implementation. Cable length is 5 in, so the dongle sits close to the port and cannot reach distant wall outlets without an additional patch cable.

Check host USB-C capability and PXE support

Verify that the USB-C port on your system supports data and is not power-only. Confirm the BIOS or UEFI can boot from a USB Ethernet device if PXE network boot is required. No driver installation is needed on modern operating systems.

Questions about this item

Which version should I choose for Gigabit Ethernet and PXE boot support?

The single model 470-ABND provides Gigabit link speed and enables PXE boot on devices that lack on-board Ethernet but have a USB-C port.

What does the Gigabit link speed mean when the adapter is plugged into my laptop?

It supports up to Gigabit Ethernet data rates, so the connection can handle faster streaming and general network traffic at that ceiling.

What interface does the adapter use and what does it cap in practice?

It uses a USB-C male connector on one end and an RJ-45 female port on the other, with the Gigabit Ethernet specification setting the practical throughput limit.
