USB 3.0 Dual-Band Wi-Fi Adapter

The YINGHUA USB 3.0 adapter adds dual-band wireless connectivity to a desktop or laptop through a standard USB port. It operates on 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz frequencies with a combined rate of 1300 Mbps. The drive-free version works without separate driver installation on supported operating systems. Two external 5 dBi omnidirectional antennas provide signal coverage up to 100 metres indoors.

Suitable for driver-free setup on Windows.

This adapter suits users who want a simple plug-and-play wireless upgrade without managing driver packages. It supports WPA, WPA2, WEP, 802.1X and WMM encryption for secure connections. Buyers needing Bluetooth capability or an internal PCIe card should consider a different product type. The USB interface also limits use on devices without a free USB 3.0 or 2.0 port.

This hardware combination decides whether the adapter meets the required throughput and coverage.

Questions about this item

Does the adapter come with antennas or do I need to buy them separately?

The package includes the wireless card with two external 5 dBi omnidirectional antennas already attached; nothing extra is required for basic operation.

What is the difference between the Drive-Free Version and the Optical Drive Version?

The Drive-Free Version installs without a driver disc on Windows XP, Vista, 7, 8, 10, Linux 2.6 and MacOS X, while the Optical Drive Version ships with a driver disc for manual installation.

Will I actually see 1300 Mbps throughput on my PC?

The 1300 Mbps figure is the combined PHY rate of 400 Mbps on 2.4 GHz and 866 Mbps on 5 GHz; real-world throughput will be lower due to overhead, distance and interference.
