USB-C Gigabit Ethernet Adapter

This new USB-C to Gigabit Ethernet adapter adds a wired network port to devices that lack one. It supports connection speeds up to 1 Gbps for stable internet access. The aluminum housing and braided-nylon cable match the finish of premium laptops and tablets. The package includes the adapter and a welcome guide.

Suits ultraportable laptops

Ideal for MacBook Pro, MacBook Air 2018 and later, iPad Pro 2018 and later, XPS models and other USB-C devices needing a reliable wired link. Not for users whose device has only USB-A ports unless they also carry a separate USB-C to USB-A adapter. Buyers who want more than one Ethernet port or additional USB hubs should look at a multi-port dock instead.

Driver-free plug-and-play on most systems

Installation is usually instant: plug the adapter into a USB-C port and connect an Ethernet cable. The main issue arises when the host operating system does not recognise the network interface automatically, which may require a manual driver download. The short integrated cable limits placement flexibility compared to models with a detachable lead.

Questions about this item

Which USB-C devices can I plug this adapter into for a wired network link?

The adapter works with virtually any USB-C device, including MacBook Pro, MacBook Air 2018 and later, iPad Pro 2018 and later, and XPS models.

Will it run at full gigabit speed on an older laptop that only has USB 2.0 Type-C ports?

The adapter supports up to 1 Gbps, but the actual throughput will be limited by the host port’s own bandwidth.

How do I confirm the link is active and running at gigabit after I connect it?

Check the network status on your device; it should show a 1 Gbps connection once the adapter is recognised.
