Compact USB 3.0 Gigabit adapter for laptops

This portable USB 3.0 to RJ45 adapter adds a wired Gigabit Ethernet port to Ultrabooks, notebooks, MacBook Air models, tablets and desktop PCs. It enables stable file transfers, video conferencing, gaming and HD streaming over a standard network cable. The aluminium shell and nylon cable suit frequent transport and daily desk use. Driver-free operation relies on native OS support across Windows, macOS and Chrome platforms.

Check USB port version

Your device must provide a USB-A 3.0 port to reach the full 1000Mbps link rate; USB 2.0 or 1.1 ports will limit throughput to 100Mbps. Verify the operating system is Windows XP through 11, macOS 10.6 or later, or Chrome OS for native driver support. To achieve Gigabit speeds, install a CAT6 or higher Ethernet cable between the adapter and the router or switch.

Sustained Gigabit throughput over USB 3.0 5Gbps bus

The built-in IC chip maintains full 10/100/1000Mbps performance during long transfers, conferences or streams without the latency spikes common on wireless links. Wake-on-LAN, full-duplex and half-duplex modes, crossover detection and auto-MDIX remain active under continuous load. Link and activity LEDs provide real-time status. USB bus power eliminates the need for an external supply during extended sessions.

Questions about this item

Does the adapter include an Ethernet cable or must I supply my own CAT6 cable?

The adapter provides the RJ45 port only; a CAT6 or higher Ethernet cable must be purchased separately to reach 1000Mbps.

Which operating systems are supported without extra drivers?

Windows 11, 10, 8.1, 8, 7, Vista, XP and Mac OSX 10.6 or later work with native drivers.

Will I see the full 1000Mbps speed on a USB 2.0 port?

The adapter is backward compatible with USB 2.0, but the 5Gbps USB 3.0 bus is required for full gigabit performance.
