The StarTech U2GA-USB-C-ETHERNET is a compact adapter designed to provide a 2.5 Gigabit Ethernet port to devices lacking a native 2.5GbE interface. It connects via USB 3.2 Gen 1 Type-C, making it suitable for modern laptops, workstations, and NVRs that support USB-C expansion. This adapter is ideal for network-intensive tasks such as high-speed file transfers, network diagnostics, or connecting to high-bandwidth network infrastructure where standard Gigabit Ethernet is a bottleneck. The integrated USB-A converter ensures backward compatibility with older USB ports.
This adapter is compatible with any host device featuring a USB 3.2 Gen 1 (or higher) Type-C port, running Windows 8/10/11, macOS 10.14+, or Linux kernel 5.x+. It supports 2.5Gbps network speeds, aligning with NBASE-T standards (IEEE 802.3bz). It is suitable for use with network surveillance systems requiring higher throughput for multiple camera streams, or for connecting to high-speed NAS devices. The Realtek RTL8156BG chipset offers broad driver support.
The adapter is USB-powered, requiring no external power supply. Simply plug the USB-C connector into your host device. The integrated 6-inch cable provides some flexibility in positioning. Operating temperature range is 0°C to 45°C (32°F to 113°F), with storage temperatures from -10°C to 70°C (14°F to 158°F). Humidity should be kept between 10% and 85% RH (non-condensing).
