ADE-TRC SuperSpeed USB-C Gigabit Ethernet

Compact Aluminium USB-C 3.2 Gen 1 Gigabit Ethernet 10/100/ 1000Mbit Adaptor with automatic installation.

The external network card AXAGON ADE-TRC easily converts USB-C 3.2 Gen 1 port to Gigabit Ethernet port.

It is compatible with 10/100/1000 Mbit/s transfer speeds. The Gigabit network Adaptor expands the computer with a fast and stable network connection, adds the missing RJ-45 network connector, adds another network card, or replaces the original non-functional network connection.

The network card with Gigabit bandwidth offers a wide range of features, such as IPv4/IPv6 checksum to reduce CPU load by checksums, the crossover detection and auto-correction, TCP large send offload, support for various modes of the Wake-on-LAN feature, the work with virtual LAN (VLAN) and Advanced Power Management Features.

The metal Adaptor cover is made of aluminium and provides perfect mechanical protection and excellent heat dissi-pation. Thanks to its compact dimensions and minimal weight, it is an ideal accessory for laptops. The support for current versions of Windows, Mac OS X, and Linux operating systems allows it to be used for any desktop, laptop or ultrabook.

In modern operating systems from Windows 8.1 above, the Adaptor allows easy automatic installation without the need for an Internet connection. Also some phones and tablets with the Android operating system, such as the Sam-sung S9 +, can be connected to the Internet with a network Ethernet cable thanks to this Adaptor.
