Adaptador USB Type-C Gigabit Ethernet Digitus DN-3028

The DIGITUS USB Type-C Gigabit Ethernet Adapter DN-3028 adds a 2.5 Gbps RJ45 network port to laptops and desktops via a USB-C or USB-A connection. It features a USB-C 3.1-compatible interface with an included USB-A adapter, a compact grey aluminum housing with lateral ventilation, and LED indicators that show the current network speed (100/1000/2500 Mbps). The adapter is bus-powered, plug-and-play, and compatible with Windows, macOS, Linux and iOS systems.

Advantages

The adapter provides up to 2.5 Gbps data transfer for stable, high-speed network access on multi-gigabit networks and uses an improved chipset for better power efficiency and performance. No external power supply is required because the device is powered through the USB-C interface. Its compact, durable aluminum housing with passive heat dissipation and LED bandwidth display make it suitable for travel and continuous high-load use. An included USB-A plug-on adapter ensures backward compatibility with older USB ports (USB 3.0 and below).

Suitable for

• Online gaming with reduced latency
• Live streaming and broadcast applications
• 4K video streaming and large file transfers
• Business trips and mobile work where wired Ethernet is needed
