StarTech C21GA-USB-ETHERNET USB-C to Gigabit Ethernet Adapter
Overview
The StarTech C21GA-USB-ETHERNET provides a reliable wired network connection for devices lacking an Ethernet port, or when the existing port is insufficient. This adapter bridges the gap for laptops, tablets, and desktops equipped with USB-C, enabling stable Gigabit network speeds essential for large file transfers, video conferencing, and consistent remote access. It also includes an integrated USB-A port, allowing you to retain a USB peripheral connection, such as a mouse or keyboard, without occupying a separate port. This is particularly useful in environments where network stability is paramount, like secure office setups or mobile workstations.
Compatibility
This adapter is compatible with any device featuring a USB 3.2 Gen 1 (or higher) Type-C port. It functions with Windows 10, 11, macOS 10.12+, Linux, and Chrome OS. It is designed to provide a 10/100/1000Mbps Ethernet connection, ensuring compatibility with standard network infrastructure. The integrated USB-A port supports USB 3.0 data rates, allowing for high-speed peripheral connectivity.
Installation Notes
The adapter operates within an ambient temperature range of 0°C to 45°C (32°F to 113°F) and can be stored between -10°C to 70°C (14°F to 158°F). It requires a humidity level between 10% and 85% RH. The integrated cable is 6.0 inches (15.2 cm) long, and the overall product dimensions are 10.0 inches (255 mm) in length, 0.8 inches (21.5 mm) in width, and 0.6 inches (15.0 mm) in height, weighing just 0.9 oz (26.0 g).
