DeLOCK 63826 USB Type-C adapter

The DeLOCK USB Type-C Adapter 63826 expands a computer or compatible device with a USB-C or Thunderbolt 3 port by one 2.5 Gigabit Ethernet interface and one SuperSpeed USB Type-A female port. It supports USB 3.2 Gen 1 host interface and complies with IEEE 802.3 family networking standards to provide reliable wired connectivity in a compact, portable housing with LED indicators for link and activity.

Advantages

This adapter provides NBASE-T support for automatic selection of the highest possible network speed up to 2.5 Gbps over conventional copper cabling while remaining backward compatible with 10/100/1000 Mbit/s Ethernet. The integrated USB Type-A female port allows connection of a USB memory stick, mouse, keyboard or other SuperSpeed peripherals. The compact size and short cable make the adapter easy to carry and use with laptops or small devices.

Suitable for

• Connecting laptops or tablets with USB-C / Thunderbolt 3 to wired networks
• Upgrading older devices to faster-than-gigabit Ethernet (up to 2.5 Gbps) where supported
• Adding a USB Type-A port for peripherals when only USB-C ports are available
• Use in home offices and business environments requiring stable wired connections

How to use

Connect the adapter's USB-C plug to a compatible USB-C or Thunderbolt 3 port on your computer. Plug an Ethernet cable into the RJ45 port on the adapter and, if needed, connect a USB device to the Type-A female port. The adapter will negotiate the best possible network speed automatically; install drivers only if required by your operating system.

Recommendations

For optimal network performance use Cat5e or better cabling to achieve 2.5 Gbps where supported by the network infrastructure. Ensure your operating system has the latest updates and drivers for USB 3.2 and Ethernet support.
