TRENDnet TUC-ET2G USB-C 3.1 to 2.5GBASE-T Ethernet Adapter

The TRENDnet TUC-ET2G is a high-performance USB-C 3.1 to 2.5GBASE-T Ethernet adapter designed for professionals who require network speeds beyond the traditional gigabit limit. It serves as a straightforward solution for equipping a USB-C or USB-A enabled laptop or desktop computer with a high-speed, wired 2.5Gbps network connection. This device is ideal for environments where large file transfers, high-resolution video streaming, or low-latency connectivity are critical, effectively upgrading a computer's networking capabilities without internal hardware modifications. This adapter leverages existing infrastructure by achieving its 2.5Gbps top speed over standard Cat5e or better cabling, eliminating the need for costly network re-wiring. It is fully compliant with the IEEE 802.3bz standard, ensuring seamless integration with modern multi-gigabit network switches and routers. The hardware also supports advanced features such as IEEE 802.1Q VLAN tagging and 802.1p Quality of Service (CoS), which allows for sophisticated network segmentation and traffic prioritization, essential for corporate and power-user environments. Designed for portability and flexibility, the TUC-ET2G features a compact, lightweight chassis and an integrated 5.59-inch USB-C cable. It is powered directly from the computer's USB port, requiring no external power adapter. For maximum compatibility, it includes a convenient USB-C to USB-A converter, ensuring it can connect to a wide range of devices. Management is driver-based, with support for Windows and macOS operating systems, providing a simple plug-and-play experience for most users.
