AXAGON NET ADAPTER USB-C 1GB/ ADE-TXCA

The external network card AXAGON ADE-TXCA easily converts a USB-C or USB-A 3.2 Gen 1 port to a Gigabit Ethernet port. Thanks to the cable with a USB-C connector, to which a USB-C to USB-A adapter is attached, you can connect the Ethernet adapter to any computer, tablet, or phone. This USB network adapter, compatible with 10/100/1000 Mbit/s, expands your computer with a fast and stable network connection, adds a missing RJ-45 network connector, provides an additional network card, or replaces an original non-functional network connection.

In addition to gigabit throughput, the LAN adapter offers a wide range of features such as IPv4/IPv6 checksum offloading to reduce CPU load, crossover detection and auto-correction, TCP large send offload, support for various Wake-on-LAN modes, VLAN support, and advanced Power Management features.

The metal adapter housing is made of aluminum, providing perfect mechanical protection and excellent heat dissipation. Due to its minimal dimensions and weight, it is an ideal accessory for laptops and other mobile devices. Support for current versions of Windows, macOS, Linux, Chrome, and Android operating systems allows it to be used with any desktop, laptop, or ultrabook equipped with a modern double-sided USB Type-C connector or a classic USB-A connector. In Windows version 8.1 and above, the adapter enables easy automatic installation without the need for an internet connection. The Ethernet adapter will also be useful for users of tablets or mobile phones that support wired Ethernet connectivity. Additionally, thanks to the chipset used, the adapter is also supported by the Nintendo Switch game console operating system.
