High-Speed Performance
A wired connection can provide increased stability and speed versus WiFi, and provide a better experience for streaming, gaming, and other network activities.
(Exact speeds are dependent upon factors like the speed of your service, and network equipment.)
Improved Chipset
Inside the USBC-TE1000 is a Realtek RTL8153 chipset for fast 10/100/1000Mbps network speeds and works with almost all USB-C 3.1, 3.0, and 2.0 hosts.
Plug and Play
Driverless installation makes for a great plug and play experience. You can immediately start using your adapter without any downloads or installs. Perfect for systems that require driver approval.
Flexible Flat Cable
The adapter is equipped with a flat, printed circuit cable that allows for a small footprint and flexibility. The compact and easy to use flat profile enables the adapter to hug surfaces and take advantage of tight spaces. This means the cable itself is more sturdy and less prone to breakage from bending like traditional, round, copper cables
