ShiverPeaks USB-A to RJ45 LAN Adapter Cable BS13-52065 — 1 Gbps, USB Type A to RJ45, PVC, 7.5 m

The ShiverPeaks USB-A to RJ45 LAN Adapter Cable BS13-52065 provides a wired Ethernet connection up to 1 Gbps for devices with a USB Type A port. The 7.5 m black PVC cable terminates in a USB-A plug on one end and a standard RJ45 connector on the other, allowing desktops, laptops and other compatible USB host devices to access stable wired networks where an onboard Ethernet port is absent.

Advantages

This adapter cable delivers up to 1 Gbps Ethernet throughput over a single USB Type A connection and extends reach with a 7.5 m length that reduces the need for additional patch cables. The black PVC jacket provides basic mechanical protection and flexibility for desktop or home office setups. The straightforward plug-and-play form factor simplifies connecting devices to wired networks without internal upgrades or docking stations.

Suitable for

• Connecting laptops without built-in Ethernet ports to wired networks
• Adding an Ethernet interface to desktop PCs or all-in-one systems via USB-A
• Temporary or semi-permanent wired connections in home offices, meeting rooms or classrooms
• Devices that support USB host networking over USB Type A

When it may not be suitable

It is not suitable for devices that lack a USB Type A host port or that require a USB-C interface unless a separate adapter is used. The cable provides standard wired Ethernet speed up to 1 Gbps; it does not support multi-gigabit Ethernet beyond 1 Gbps. For outdoor installations or environments requiring enhanced mechanical or environmental protection, the basic PVC jacket may be insufficient.

Key specifications

• Maximum data rate: 1 Gbps
• Connectors: USB Type A (male) to RJ45 (male)
• Cable length: 7.5 meters
• Jacket material: PVC
• Colour: Black

How to use

Plug the USB Type A connector into an available USB-A host port on your computer or compatible device. Insert the RJ45 connector into an Ethernet wall socket, switch or router port. Allow the host device to recognise the network interface; operating systems may automatically install a driver or use a built-in USB networking driver. After the connection is established, configure network settings on the host if necessary (DHCP is commonly used). Disconnect by removing the connectors when finished.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify your device has a USB Type A host port and supports USB network adapters
• Confirm 1 Gbps speed meets your application requirements; this cable does not support speeds above 1 Gbps
• Consider cable length and routing needs; 7.5 m is suitable for many indoor setups
• Assess environmental needs—PVC jacket is intended for indoor use and standard office environments

Usage recommendations

For reliable performance, avoid tight bends near the connectors, keep the cable away from high-interference power sources, and use the adapter with up-to-date host drivers. For permanent installations, consider securing the cable along baseboards or cable channels to prevent strain on connectors.
