StarTech USB31000S USB 3.0 to Gigabit Ethernet Adapter

Introduction

The USB31000S/ USB31000SW USB 3.0 to Gigabit Ethernet Adapter adds a single RJ45 Ethernet port to a USB-enabled computer system, with support for connecting to Gigabit networks at full bandwidth, unlike USB 2.0 adapters. The USB network adapter is backward compatible with older USB 2.0/1.x computer systems (speed limited by USB bus), making this compact and portable USB Gigabit LAN adapter an ideal replacement network adapter or laptop accessory. With support for features such as Jumbo Frames, VLAN tagging and Wake on LAN (WOL), the adapter is suitable for home and business users alike. The USB31000S/USB31000SW USB 3.0 Gigabit adapter is backed by a StarTech.com 2-year warranty and free lifetime technical support.
