What the adapter does and who needs it

This Zebra Lightning-to-RJ45 adapter adds a wired Ethernet port and a pass-through charging port to iPhones and iPads that have a Lightning connector. It is aimed at users who need a stable 10/100 Mbps LAN connection for streaming, gaming or work while keeping the device powered. Apple MFi certification means the accessory meets Apple’s performance standards for Lightning devices.

Practical limits of the 100 Mbps Ethernet interface

The RJ45 port tops out at 100 Mbps, so gigabit or multi-gigabit networks will run at this lower ceiling. The adapter draws power from the Lightning bus, so very long cables or high-draw peripherals on the charging port may reduce reliability. It is designed for iOS 11 and later on supported iPhone and iPad models only.

Installation experience and common issues

Setup is plug-and-play: connect the Lightning plug, attach an Ethernet cable and optionally a Lightning charger, then the blue status LED confirms link activity. No driver or app installation is required. The most frequent problem is a loose Lightning fit on cases with thick port cut-outs, which can interrupt both data and charging.

Questions about this item

Which iPhone or iPad models work with this Lightning to RJ45 adapter?

It supports iPhone 5 through 14 series including SE 2020, plus iPad and iPod models running iOS 11 or later.

What does the 100 Mbps rating mean for actual use on an iPhone?

The RJ45 port negotiates at 10 or 100 Mbps; on iOS you will see wired speeds up to the network’s 100 Mbps limit, eliminating Wi-Fi drops.

Does the Lightning female port pass through data or only power?

The extra Lightning port is for charging only; it delivers power while the RJ45 handles the network link.
