Right-angle USB-C adapter with aluminium alloy body, RJ45 port and three USB 3.0 ports

SMUGDESK

SMUGDESK 90° USB-C to RJ45 2.5G/10G Adapter with 3× USB 3.0

SKU CH-J6FN-RT8GG

A right-angle USB-C adapter adds a 2.5G/10G RJ45 port plus three USB 3.0 ports for fast wired networking and extra peripherals

  • Right-angle 90° plug protects USB-C port from bending strain
  • 5G and 10G Ethernet delivers low-latency wired network speed
  • Three USB 3.0 ports add flash-drive, mouse, keyboard and drive connections
  • Aluminium-alloy housing dissipates heat for durable long-term operation
  • Plug-and-play works instantly on MacBook, Windows laptops and desktops

Right-Angle USB-C Network Adapter

This SMUGDESK adapter adds a 2.5G or 10G wired Ethernet connection and three USB 3.0 ports through a single USB-C socket. The 90-degree plug reduces strain on the host port and keeps cables tidy. Aluminium alloy housing helps dissipate heat during sustained transfers. It works immediately without driver installation on Windows, macOS and Linux devices that expose a standard USB-C interface.

For Laptops and Desktops Lacking High-Speed Wired

The adapter suits users who need multi-gigabit Ethernet on ultrabooks, MacBooks or compact PCs without opening the chassis. It also provides extra USB-A sockets for peripherals such as drives, mice or keyboards. Buyers whose network infrastructure stops at 1GbE will not see the higher link rates. Devices without a USB-C port cannot use this adapter.

Dual-Rate 2.5G and 10G RJ45 Port

The single Ethernet jack negotiates at either 2.5G or 10G depending on the connected switch or router. This capability decides whether the adapter can saturate modern multi-gigabit broadband or local NAS links. If the upstream equipment only supports 1GbE, the port will fall back to that speed.

Questions about this item

How hot does the aluminum housing get when the 10 Gbps Ethernet link runs all day?

The premium aluminum alloy housing is designed for efficient heat dissipation during sustained 2.5G and 10G network traffic, keeping the adapter cool even with continuous use.

My laptop has only a standard USB-C port — will the 90-degree plug and three USB 3.0 ports work without extra drivers?

Yes, the right-angle USB-C connector fits any standard USB-C port and the three USB 3.0 expansion ports operate immediately with plug-and-play, no driver installation required.

Can I keep using my older USB 2.0 flash drives and mouse alongside the 2.5G Ethernet connection?

The three USB 3.0 ports are backward compatible, so legacy USB 2.0 peripherals work normally while the RJ45 port delivers 2.5G or 10G wired speeds.
