Fervit USB-C 3.1 to Gigabit Ethernet Adapter

SKU CH-GMTP-BZYJS

Adds a 10/100/1000 Mbps wired network port to a USB-C 3.1 device, powered entirely from the port with wake-on-LAN and IEEE 802.3AZ efficiency

  • Gigabit network access through a USB-C 3.1 port
  • Bus-powered design removes the need for an external adapter
  • Wake-on-LAN support lets the system wake from sleep remotely
  • Energy Efficient Ethernet 802.3AZ cuts power use during low traffic
  • IPv4 and IPv6 checksum offload reduces processor load

What this adapter does

The Fervit USB-C 3.1 to Gigabit Ethernet Adapter adds a wired network port to any computer with a USB-C socket. It is aimed at laptop users who need a stable 10/100/1000Mbps connection without relying on wireless. The bus-powered design draws power directly from the host port, so no external supply is needed.

Deciding spec: USB 3.1 Gigabit throughput

The adapter complies with the USB 3.1 specification to deliver true 10/100/1000Mbps Ethernet speeds. If your USB-C port only supports USB 2.0, the link will fall back to 10/100Mbps and you will not see gigabit performance. Check your device’s port specification before purchase.

Thermals, noise and power draw

The compact, bus-powered unit runs silently because it has no fan. Power consumption stays low thanks to IEEE 802.3AZ Energy Efficient Ethernet and IPv4/IPv6 checksum offload, which reduce host processor load during normal network traffic.

Questions about this item

Will the 1000Mbps figure hold when I plug the adapter into my laptop?

The adapter supports 10/100/1000Mbps speeds and complies with the USB-C specification to deliver full gigabit throughput.

Does the USB 3.1 link limit the 1000Mbps network speed in practice?

USB 3.1 bandwidth exceeds gigabit Ethernet, so the 10/100/1000Mbps link is not capped by the interface.

What does the adapter need on the computer side to fit and work?

It connects to any USB-C port and draws power from that port, so no external supply is required.
