Tips

For best performance, use a Cat 5e or higher Ethernet cable and ensure your network switch or router supports Gigabit speeds. The adapter draws power from the USB port, so no external power supply is needed. If you experience connection issues, try a different USB-C port or check for OS updates. This adapter is also compatible with Thunderbolt 3 ports, which are physically identical to USB-C.
