Compact USB-C hub with wired Ethernet

The TP-Link UE330C adds three USB 3.0 Type-A ports and a Gigabit Ethernet jack to a single USB-C connection. It suits laptop users who need legacy peripherals and a stable wired network link. The white enclosure measures 1.2 by 0.9 by 3.8 inches and draws power from the host port.

Gigabit Ethernet decides the fit

The single specification that determines suitability is the 1 x Gigabit Ethernet port, which provides a 1 Gbps wired link where Wi-Fi is unreliable or blocked. Systems must run Windows 7 or later, Mac OS X 10.9 or later, Chrome OS, Linux, Nintendo OS or iPad OS to use the adapter without extra drivers.

Sustained throughput stays at wire speed

Under continuous load the Gigabit Ethernet controller maintains line-rate transfer without thermal throttling because the aluminium shell dissipates heat passively. The three USB 3.0 ports share 5 Gbps bandwidth, so simultaneous heavy disk traffic and network streams remain within the host controller limits.

Questions about this item

What does the Gigabit Ethernet port mean for my actual wired network speed?

The port provides a standard Gigabit Ethernet connection so your wired link runs at up to 1 Gbps when your router and cabling also support that rate.

Which USB standard does the USB-C connector use and what throughput does it cap at?

The USB-C connector uses the USB 3.0 standard which caps total hub throughput at 5 Gbps shared across the three USB-A ports and the Ethernet adapter.

How much desk space does the adapter need and what clearance should I allow?

The unit measures 1.2" x 0.9" x 3.8" so it fits alongside a laptop without blocking adjacent ports and needs only a few centimetres of cable bend radius.
