Overview



Plugable USB 3.1 Type C (USB C) 10/100/1000 Gigabit Ethernet Adapter
The Plugable USB-C 10/100/1000 Gigabit Ethernet Adapter (USBC-E1000) is an easy way to gain wired gigabit network speeds over USB-C for faster HD video streaming, gaming, web browsing, network access and more. It's also the perfect travel companion for any laptop or tablet due to its small size and USB bus powered design. Some common uses include:
- Adding wired gigabit network support to Windows, Ultrabooks, or notebooks without an Ethernet connection
- Replacing or upgrading network adapters for your computer
- USB network adapters can improve speeds compared to older 10/100 adapters, and most wireless networks
- Adding additional network interfaces, and transferring files peer-to-peer over Ethernet

Chipset
Inside the USBC-E1000 is an ASIX AX88179 chipset for fast 10/100/1000Mbit network speeds and maximum compatibility with almost all USB-C 3.1, 3.0, and 2.0 hosts.




At-a-glance



  • COMPATIBILITY—Not supported on macOS. Not recommended for Lenovo Yoga 2/3 due to issues with their USB 3.0 controller. Compatible with docked Nintendo Switch, or handheld mode with compliant USB-C to USB 3.0 solution

  • EASY INSTALLATION—Automatic driver installation via Windows Update on Windows 11, 10, 8.x, 7, and XP (with existing internet connection). Functionality built into the Linux kernel from 3.9 onward (compile required for 2.6 to 3.8)

  • FASTER THAN WiFi—Upgrade to wired Gigabit speeds via USB-C and Thunderbolt 3. This fast USB-C Gigabit solution powered by the ASIX AX88179 chipset provides more performance and stability than most Wi-Fi networks

  • FEATURES—Practical speeds over 700Mbps on USB C and Gigabit network. IPv4/IPv6 checksum offload engine, crossover detection and auto-correction, TCP large send offload, and IEEE 802.3az Energy Efficient Ethernet. Max 4K jumbo frames
