5Gbps USB C to Ethernet Adapter, USB Type-C to RJ45 Gigabit LAN Ethernet Network Adapter for Windows, Mac OS, iPad OS and More

  • 5G ETHERNET PERFORMANCE Add a stable wired connection up to 5Gbps (5GBASE-T) for fast downloads, low-latency video calls, and smooth streaming; backward compatible with 10/100/1000/2500Mbps networks.
  • USB-C 3.2 GEN 2 READY Designed for high-throughput links; for best results connect to a USB 3.2 Gen2 (10Gbps) or higher USBC/Thunderbolt port to minimize bottlenecks that can occur on older ports.
  • CAT6A+ FOR FULL SPEED To reach 5GbE, use CAT6A (or higher) Ethernet cabling and a 5GbE-capable switch/router with broadband speeds that can exceed 5Gbps; otherwise it will auto-negotiate to the highest supported rate.
  • WIDE OS COMPATIBILITY Works with Windows 10/11/8.x/7/Vista/XP, macOS 10.6+, iPadOS, Linux kernel 3.2+, and up-to-date ChromeOS; older systems may require driver download/installation.
  • COMPACT & DURABLE BUILD Lightweight aluminum-alloy style housing with heat-dissipation design helps maintain stable operation in home, office, and travel setups; ideal for laptops and USBC devices lacking an RJ45 port.

USB-C to 5GbE Ethernet Adapter

Upgrade USBC devices with a fast, reliable wired network connection using this USBC to 5GbE (5GBASET) Ethernet adapter. The RJ45 port supports speeds up to 5Gbps and is backward compatible with 2.5Gbps/1Gbps/100Mbps/10Mbps, making it ideal for high-speed LAN environments, large file transfers, and low-latency conferencing.

Key Performance Notes

  • USB-C port matters: For best results, connect to a USB 3.2 Gen2 (10Gbps) or higher USBC/Thunderbolt port to reduce bottlenecks.
  • Cabling matters: To reach 5GbE, use CAT6A (or higher) Ethernet cabling and 5GbE-capable network equipment; otherwise it auto-negotiates to the highest supported rate.

Compatibility

  • Supported OS: Windows 10/11/8.x/7/Vista/XP, macOS 10.6+, iPadOS, Linux kernel 3.2+, up-to-date ChromeOS

  • Approx. dimensions: 3 x 1 x 0.5 in; weight: ~46 g

FAQ

  • Q: What do I need to actually get 5Gbps (5GbE) speed?
  • A: Use a USB 3.2 Gen2 (10Gbps) or higher USBC/Thunderbolt port, a CAT6A+ Ethernet cable, and a 5GbE-capable router/switch; your internet/LAN must also support those speeds.
  • Q: Will it work with 1Gbps or 2.5Gbps networks?
  • A: Yes. It is backward compatible with 10/100/1000/2500Mbps and will auto-negotiate to the highest available speed.
  • Q: Does it work with iPadOS?
  • A: Yes, it supports iPadOS for adding an RJ45 wired connection via USBC.
  • Q: Do I need to install a driver?
  • A: Some older OS or Linux kernel versions may require driver download/installation; up-to-date systems are more likely to work plug-and-play.
  • Q: Is it compatible with Nintendo Switch or Android phones?
  • A: Nothis adapter is not compatible with Nintendo Switch and most Android devices.
