Lindy USB 3.2 Type C Gigabit Ethernet Converter

The Lindy USB 3.2 Type C Gigabit Ethernet Converter allows a notebook or ultrabook with a USB Type-C port to connect to a Gigabit Ethernet network. The compact adapter (24 × 58 × 16 mm) with a 0.135 m cable supports data transfer rates up to 5 Gbit/s and is bus-powered, so no external power supply is required. It is suitable for devices that lack built-in wired network ports or when wireless connectivity is unavailable or unreliable. The product is certified to CE, FCC, RoHS, REACH and California Proposition 65 standards and comes in a silver finish weighing 0.027 kg.

Advantages

The converter provides a simple plug-and-play method to add Gigabit Ethernet to USB Type-C notebooks and ultrabooks without needing drivers on most modern systems. Its small size and low weight make it convenient for travel and mobile work. Being USB bus-powered eliminates the need for an external power adapter, and wide compatibility with USB 3.0/3.1/3.2 hosts ensures it works with many current laptops and hubs.

Suitable for

• Ultrabooks and notebooks without an RJ45 or built-in Ethernet port
• Environments with unreliable or restricted Wi‑Fi coverage
• Temporary wired connections in offices, hotels or meeting rooms
• Mobile professionals who need stable Gigabit Ethernet on the go

How to use

Plug the converter's USB Type-C connector into the notebook or ultrabook USB-C port and connect an Ethernet cable to the RJ45 jack on the adapter. The adapter is bus-powered and will be recognised by most modern operating systems automatically; if necessary, install any vendor drivers provided with the device. After connection, the computer will use the wired network interface for internet and LAN access depending on system network settings.

Recommendations

For best performance, connect to a Gigabit-capable network switch or router using a Cat5e or better Ethernet cable. When using older USB hosts, verify compatibility with USB 3.0/3.1/3.2 standards to ensure optimal data rates.
