Gigabit Ethernet and USB 3.0 hub

The StarTech USB31000S2H adds a 10/100/1000Mbps RJ-45 port and two USB 3.0 SuperSpeed ports through a single USB 3.0 Type-A male connector. Native driver support covers Windows, Mac and Chrome OS. It operates from 0 to 70 °C and stores from -10 to 55 °C at 40-50% humidity.

Mobile users needing wired networking

This adapter suits laptops, tablets or thin clients that lack built-in Ethernet or have limited USB sockets. It is not for systems that already provide multiple native USB 3.0 ports and Gigabit Ethernet, or for builds requiring internal PCIe network cards.

Single-cable docking for constrained setups

Plug the male USB 3.0 end into the host to gain wired networking and two downstream USB 3.0 ports for peripherals such as mice, keyboards or flash drives. The 5 g device draws power from the host port, eliminating the need for an external supply.

Questions about this item

What type of USB port does the USB31000S2H need on my laptop or tablet?

The adapter plugs into a USB 3.0 Type-A port on the host device.

Will my existing USB 2.0 flash drives and mouse work with the two extra ports on this adapter?

Yes, the two USB 3.0 Type-A ports are backward compatible with USB 2.0 peripherals.

How can I confirm the gigabit link is active after I connect the USB31000S2H?

Check the RJ-45 port LEDs; a lit or blinking link/activity light shows a 10/100/1000 Mbps connection.
