AXAGON ADE-25R USB-A 2.5G Ethernet Adapter RJ45
The AXAGON ADE-25R external network card easily converts a USB-A 3.2 Gen 1 (USB 3.0) port into a 2.5 Gigabit Ethernet port. It is compatible with 10/100/1000/2500 Mbit/s transfer speeds. The 2.5 Gb/s network adapter expands your computer with an ultra-fast and stable network connection, adds a missing RJ-45 network connector, provides an additional network card, or replaces a non-functional original network connection.
Besides 2.5 gigabit throughput, the LAN adapter offers a wide range of features, such as IPv4/IPv6 checksum offloading to reduce CPU load, crossover detection and auto-correction, TCP large send offload, support for various Wake-on-LAN modes, operation with virtual LAN (VLAN), and advanced Power Management features. Thanks to the IEEE 802.3bz standard, standard Cat 5e and Cat 6 Ethernet cables up to 100 m can be used for 2.5 Gb/s speeds.
The metal adapter casing is made of aluminum, ensuring excellent mechanical protection and superior heat dissipation. Its compact size and minimal weight make it an ideal accessory for laptops. With support for current versions of Windows, macOS, and Linux, it can be used with any desktop, laptop, or ultrabook.
With modern operating systems from Windows 8.1 and newer, the adapter supports easy automatic installation without requiring an internet connection.
