USB-C Ethernet Adapter WENTRONIC 76579 — Gigabit LAN, black, for PC and Apple MacBook

The WENTRONIC USB-C Ethernet Adapter 76579 converts a USB-C port into a wired Gigabit LAN connection, providing a stable network link for laptops and computers. Encased in a compact black housing, the adapter is designed for use with PCs and Apple MacBook devices that lack a built-in Ethernet port. It enables high-speed, low-latency connectivity for streaming, video conferencing, large file transfers and other tasks where wired reliability is preferred over wireless networks.

Advantages

The adapter delivers Gigabit Ethernet performance through a USB-C interface while remaining small and portable. Its plug-and-play operation ensures quick setup on most systems without additional hardware, and the wired connection reduces latency and packet loss compared with Wi‑Fi. The black finish and compact form factor make it unobtrusive when connected to a laptop or dock, and it supports stable throughput for demanding network activities.

Suitable for

• Streaming high-definition video on laptops and MacBooks
• Reliable video calls and conferencing in professional environments
• Large file uploads and downloads where stable throughput is required
• Workstations and meeting rooms with weak or restricted Wi‑Fi

Key specifications

• Interface: USB-C host connection to device
• Network standard: Gigabit Ethernet (1000 Mbps)
• Color and housing: black, compact housing
• Compatibility: compatible with PCs and Apple MacBook systems with USB-C ports
• Use case: wired LAN connection for data, streaming and communications

How to use

Connect the adapter's USB-C plug to an available USB-C port on your laptop or computer and attach an Ethernet cable to the adapter's RJ45 connector and to your network outlet or switch. Most modern operating systems will detect the adapter automatically and switch network traffic to the wired connection. If required, enable the wired network in your system network settings or install any device drivers provided by the operating system or manufacturer.

Usage recommendations

For best performance, use a quality Cat5e or Cat6 Ethernet cable and ensure the network switch or router supports Gigabit speeds. Place the adapter where it will not be bent repeatedly at the connector to avoid wear. If automatic detection fails, check system network settings and update operating system drivers as needed.
