Axagon High-Speed USB 3.0 Gigabit Ethernet Adapter

Features

ADE-SR USB 3.0 Gigabit Ethernet

High-speed USB 3.0 Gigabit Ethernet 10/100/1000Mbit adapter with automatic installation.

The compact super-speed AXAGON ADE-SR adapter easily converts USB 3.0 port to Gigabit Ethernet 10/100/1000 Mbit port.

In addition to a Gigabit bandwidth, the network card offers a wide range of features, such as IPv4/IPv6 checksum to reduce CPU loading by checksums, the crossover detection and auto-correction, TCP large send offload, support for various modes of the Wake-on-LAN feature, the work with virtual LAN (VLAN) and advanced Power Management features.

In modern operating systems from Windows 8.1 above, the adapter allows easy automatic installation without the need for an Internet connection.

Gigabit network card extends your computer by a fast network connection, adds the missing RJ-45 network connector or another network card, or replaces the original defunct network connection.

The support for current versions of Windows, Mac OS X, and Linux operating systems allows it to be used for any desktop, laptop or ultrabook. Also, some Android phones and tablets, such as the Samsung S9+, can be connected to the Internet with a network Ethernet cable thanks to this adapter and a suitable reduction (We recommend OTG reduction for devices with a micro USB connector, for devices with USB-C connector we recommend USB-C> USB-A reduction).

• Full Plug and Play and Hot Plug support.
