Paloxy USB-C Ethernet Adapter 1Gbps

This compact grey adapter adds a wired Gigabit Ethernet port to any device with a USB-C socket. It is aimed at laptop, tablet and phone users who need a stable connection when Wi-Fi is unreliable or unavailable. The aluminium housing aids heat dissipation and the non-slip design makes insertion and removal easy. It ships new and ready for immediate use.

1Gbps capacity with 100Mbps and 10Mbps fallback

The adapter negotiates up to 1000M speeds when paired with CAT6 or better cabling and a compatible network. Actual throughput depends on the host device, network infrastructure and content server, so peak rates are not guaranteed. It will step down to 100Mbps or 10Mbps on older switches without configuration. Buyers who need multi-gigabit or 10GbE performance should look elsewhere.

Driver-free USB-C male to RJ45 female

The plug-and-play design works with listed MacBook Pro, MacBook Air, iPad Pro, Dell XPS, ASUS ZenBook, HP Spectre, ThinkPad X1 Carbon, Surface and Pixelbook models. An internal driver store handles most operating systems automatically, though some OS security settings may require manual installation. The slim profile avoids blocking neighbouring USB-C ports. Users whose devices lack a USB-C port cannot use this adapter.

Questions about this item

Will the 1Gbps adapter slow down when I plug it into my 2017 MacBook Pro alongside older USB-A peripherals?

The adapter runs at up to 1000M and is downward compatible with 100Mbps and 10Mbps networks; it does not affect the speed of other ports on the MacBook Pro.

How can I confirm the Paloxy adapter is delivering a gigabit link after I plug it in?

Check the network status on your device — it should show a 1Gbps connection when a CAT6 or better cable is used and the router supports gigabit speeds.

Does the grey Paloxy unit ship with any cables or do I need to buy a CAT6 Ethernet cable separately?

Only the adapter is included in the package; a CAT6 or higher Ethernet cable must be purchased separately to reach 1Gbps.
