Get the most out of wired connection speeds.

The Plugable 2.5Gbps USB to Ethernet Adapter (USBC-E2500) is for users looking to move beyond Gigabit Ethernet speeds. With the USBC-E2500, you can leverage existing Cat 5e Ethernet cables and use less costly switches to more than double the performance of your local network compared to traditional Gigabit Ethernet. The adapter comes with a hybrid 2-in-1 connection that converts from USB-C to USB-A, so you always have the right connection.

Some common uses include:

• Adding wired 2.5 Gigabit network support to Windows desktops, Ultrabooks, 2-in-1s, tablets, or notebooks—as well as Mac and Linux systems.
• Replacing or upgrading network adapters for your computer.
• USB network adapters can improve transfer speeds compared to 10/100/1000 adapters and most wireless networks.
• Adding additional network interfaces and transferring files peer-to-peer over Ethernet.

More than double performance.

Plug into any laptop or desktop currently limited to 10/100/1000 Ethernet—or no Ethernet at all—and benefit from faster transfers on your 2.5 Gigabit Ethernet network. (Also works on 10/100/1000 Ethernet networks at their native speeds.) USB 3.0 systems support theoretical maximum transfer speeds up to 5Gbps and USB 2.0 supports up to 480Mbps.

Multi-platform convenience.

Quickly and easily add Ethernet connectivity, with performance up to 2.5Gbps to virtually any Mac, Windows, or Linux PC. Use either USB-C or USB 3.0 to connect, and connect instantly with built-in drivers on current versions of major operating systems.

Compatible with:

• USB-C
• USB 3.0
• Thunderbolt 3 or Thunderbolt 4.
