ShiverPeaks USB-C to RJ45 LAN Adapter Cable BS14-51035, 1 Gbps, USB Type-C plug to RJ45, aluminum housing, black, 2 m

The ShiverPeaks USB-C to RJ45 LAN Adapter Cable BS14-51035 is a 2 m wired adapter that converts a USB Type-C port into a Gigabit Ethernet connection. Designed for laptops, tablets and other USB-C devices that lack a built-in Ethernet port, this black cable with aluminum housing supports up to 1 Gbps network throughput for stable wired internet access, large file transfers, streaming and video conferencing.

Advantages

This adapter provides a reliable wired network connection with up to 1 Gbps throughput, reducing latency and improving stability compared with typical wireless connections. The 2 m length gives flexibility for desktop or meeting-room setups without being excessively long. The aluminum housing improves durability and helps with heat dissipation while the USB Type-C plug ensures compatibility with modern devices that support USB-C networking.

Suitable for

• Connecting laptops or tablets without an Ethernet port to a wired LAN for internet access
• Stable high-speed file transfers between local network devices
• Video conferencing and streaming where reduced latency and consistent bandwidth are required
• Temporary or permanent wired network setups in offices, home offices and conference rooms

When it may not be suitable

This cable supports up to 1 Gbps and is intended for devices with a USB-C port that supports Ethernet networking. It may not provide additional features such as PoE (Power over Ethernet), advanced managed-switch functions, or speeds above 1 Gbps required for multi-gig networks. If your device does not support USB-C peripheral networking or requires a specific driver not available for your operating system, this adapter may not function as expected.

Key specifications

• Interface: USB Type-C plug to RJ45 Ethernet connector
• Maximum data throughput: up to 1 Gbps
• Cable length: 2 metres
• Housing material: aluminum
• Colour: black
• Intended use: wired Ethernet connection for USB-C devices

How to use

Connect the USB Type-C plug to a compatible device that supports USB-C networking. Plug the RJ45 connector into a network port on a router, switch or wall outlet. The adapter is typically plug-and-play on many modern operating systems; allow the system to detect and configure the network connection. If necessary, install drivers supplied by the device or operating system vendor and configure IP settings in the network control panel of your device.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that your device’s USB-C port supports Ethernet networking or that the operating system provides the required driver support
• Confirm that 1 Gbps throughput meets your bandwidth needs; this adapter does not provide multi-gig speeds above 1 Gbps
• Check physical length (2 m) to ensure it suits your workspace layout
• Ensure you do not require Power over Ethernet or managed switch features from the adapter

Usage recommendations

For best results, use a shielded Ethernet cable and connect to a Gigabit-capable switch or router. Keep the aluminum housing and connectors clean and avoid sharp bends near the cable ends to maintain signal integrity. If you experience connectivity issues, verify driver installation and try a different USB-C port or network outlet.
