How to use

Insert the USB-C connector into an available USB-C port on your laptop, tablet or desktop. Connect an Ethernet cable to the RJ45 female socket and to your network switch, router or wall outlet. Most modern operating systems will detect the adapter automatically and configure network settings via plug-and-play; if required, check device network settings to select the wired interface. For best performance, use Cat5e or higher Ethernet cables and ensure the host USB-C port supports USB 3.2 Gen 1 speeds.

Usage recommendations

Place the adapter where the cable is not under tension and avoid sharp bends in the Ethernet cable. For sustained high-throughput tasks, use Cat6 or Cat6a cables and connect to a Gigabit-capable switch or router. If the host device does not recognize the adapter, verify operating system updates and USB-C host support; consult device settings for network interface selection.
