Hi-Speed USB 2.0 Gigabit Ethernet Adapter, Black
The Hi-Speed USB 2.0 Gigabit Ethernet Adapter is a compact, high-performance network adapter that allows you to upgrade your desktop or notebook computer to operate at Gigabit speeds on the LAN. Because it attaches to one of your computer’s USB connectors, there is no need to open up your PC — and the user-friendly setup software makes installation quick and easy.
<b>Faster Throughput</b>
The Hi-Speed Adapter allows you to take advantage of the throughput rate of Hi-Speed USB 2.0. Other adapters that only run up to 10/100 Mbps Fast Ethernet can not even come close to providing you with this enhanced performance.
<b>Auto-Negotiation</b>
The Hi-Speed Adapter will automatically detect the network speed that the LAN switch port is set to and run at the same speed. The adapter supports 10Base-T Ethernet, 100Base-TX Fast Ethernet and 1000Base-T Gigabit Ethernet.
<b>Full Duplex</b>
When running in full duplex mode, the Hi-Speed Adapter connects at the following link speeds: 20 Mbps (10Base-T Ethernet), 200 Mbps (100Base-TX Fast Ethernet) and 2 Gbps (1000Base-T Gigabit Ethernet).
<b>Portable Design</b>
The Hi-Speed Adapter is compact, and can be easily used from one computer to another or transferred in your notebook case as you travel. It doesn’t take up a lot of space, and does not add clutter to your workspace.
<b>Features:</b>
- Up to 3 times faster than USB 2.0 to Fast Ethernet adapters;
- Up to 30 times faster than USB 1.1 to Fast Ethernet adapters;
- Add a network connection without opening up your PC;
- Perfect for both desktop and notebook computers;
- Hot swappable (no need to power down);
- Full duplex with auto speed detection;
- Low power consumption via USB bus;
- Plug and Play installation;
