USB-C to Gigabit Network Adapter with 3-Port USB Hub CONCEPTRONIC ABBY25G — USB 3.2 Gen 1, 1 Gbps Ethernet, 3x USB-A, aluminium, grey

CONCEPTRONIC ABBY25G is a USB-C to Gigabit Ethernet adapter with an integrated 3‑port USB-A hub in an aluminium housing. It provides wired network connectivity at up to 1 Gbps (10/100/1000 Mbps) and SuperSpeed USB data transfer up to 5 Gbps over USB 3.2 Gen 1. The compact adapter connects to hosts via USB-C or USB-A and includes a 0.18 m cable, making it suitable for laptops, tablets and mobile devices that need a stable wired connection and extra USB ports.

Advantages

The adapter combines Gigabit Ethernet and a 3‑port USB hub in a single aluminium enclosure, offering a space-saving solution for wired networking and peripheral expansion. USB 3.2 Gen 1 ensures fast data transfers for external storage and accessories, while Wake-on-LAN support enables remote system startup. Broad compatibility with Windows, macOS, ChromeOS and Android allows use across many devices without complex setup.

Suitable for

• Users who need a stable wired network connection on laptops or tablets
• Connecting external storage, keyboard and mouse via additional USB-A ports
• Remote administration or systems that require Wake-on-LAN
• Environments where a compact, durable aluminium adapter is preferred

When it may not be suitable

This adapter does not provide wireless networking or multi-gigabit Ethernet beyond 1 Gbps, so it is not suitable where faster-than‑Gigabit wired speeds are required. It also relies on host USB ports for power and bandwidth—performance may be limited on older USB 2.0 ports or devices with restricted USB power.

Key specifications

• Ethernet: 10/100/1000 Mbps (Gigabit Ethernet)
• USB: USB 3.2 Gen 1 (SuperSpeed) up to 5 Gbps
• Hub ports: 3 × USB-A downstream ports
• Host interfaces: USB-C and USB-A compatibility
• Wake-on-LAN: supported
• Housing: aluminium
• Cable length: 0.18 m
• Compatibility: Windows, macOS, ChromeOS, Android

How to use

Connect the adapter to a computer or device using the built‑in USB-C or USB-A connector. Plug an Ethernet cable into the RJ45 port to establish a wired network connection and attach peripherals such as a keyboard, mouse or external drive to the USB-A ports. The adapter is plug-and-play on supported systems; drivers are typically loaded automatically. Enable Wake-on-LAN in the operating system and BIOS if remote startup over the network is required.

What to consider before purchase

• Ensure your device has a free USB-C or USB-A port and supports USB 3.2 Gen 1 for full performance
• Confirm that 1 Gbps Ethernet meets your network speed requirements
• Check operating system compatibility for any required drivers (Windows, macOS, ChromeOS, Android)
• Account for the short 0.18 m cable when planning placement

Recommendations

For best results, connect the adapter to a USB 3.2 Gen 1 port and use quality Ethernet cables; avoid using it through passive USB hubs that can reduce bandwidth. If Wake-on-LAN is needed, verify BIOS and OS settings and test remote startup in your environment.
