Ubiquiti UACC-ADAPTER-RJ45-USBC-5GE – 5GbE USB-C Ethernet Adapter
Overview
The Ubiquiti UACC-ADAPTER-RJ45-USBC-5GE is a plug-and-play Ethernet adapter that adds 5GbE RJ45 network connectivity to compatible computers and host devices through USB Type-C. It provides a compact connection between a USB-C host and a high-speed Ethernet network.
Technical Information
The adapter provides one 5 GbE RJ45 networking port and one USB Type-C host connection. Ubiquiti specifies a polycarbonate and aluminum alloy enclosure with an integrated LAN activity indicator. The adapter is bus-powered through its USB-C connection and measures 83.4 × 25 × 16.5 mm.
The adapter supports Gigabit LAN connectivity in addition to its 5 GbE interface, allowing it to connect to Ethernet networks operating at supported lower link speeds. It is designed as a compact external network interface rather than an independently powered networking device.
Compatibility
Ubiquiti specifies compatibility with macOS 14.2 and later releases, Windows 7, Windows 8, Windows 8.1, Windows 10, Windows 11 and future releases, in both 32-bit and 64-bit configurations, as well as Linux.
The host device must provide a compatible USB Type-C connection. The network-side connection uses an RJ45 Ethernet interface and should be connected to compatible 5GbE or lower-speed Ethernet infrastructure.
Key Features
- 5 GbE RJ45 Ethernet connectivity through USB Type-C.
- Plug-and-play external Ethernet adapter design.
- Supports Gigabit LAN connectivity.
- Polycarbonate and aluminum alloy enclosure.
- Compact 83.4 × 25 × 16.5 mm form factor.
Applications
The adapter is suitable for laptops, desktop computers, workstations, and other compatible USB-C hosts that require wired Ethernet connectivity. It can be used to add high-speed network access where the host does not provide an integrated 5GbE RJ45 interface.
DC Supplies Product Note
Verify the host device's USB Type-C capabilities and operating-system support before deployment. The adapter is bus-powered through USB-C, while the network connection is provided through its 5GbE RJ45 port.
