StarTech.com USB Adapter USB Network Adapter

This USB network adaptor provides wired Ethernet connectivity via a USB Interface for systems requiring a Compact network link. It connects devices to copper Ethernet networks, supporting both legacy and gigabit links while operating from a 5V DC supply. Designed for environments where a direct LAN connection is preferred over wireless, it integrates with standard network infrastructures and supports VLAN tagging for segmented traffic.

• USB 3.2 Gen 1 link for high-throughput data transfer
• Supports 1000BASE-T for gigabit Ethernet performance
• Compatible with 100Base-TX and 10BASE-T networks for flexibility
• VLAN tagging implemented to separate network traffic
• Conforms to RoHS for restricted substances compliance

• Suitable for integrating automation controllers into wired LANs
• Ideal for electronics test benches requiring stable network access
• Used with industrial PCs to add gigabit LAN capability
• Can be used for configuration of networked electrical devices

It draws its operating power from a 5V DC source supplied through the USB connection, so no external power adaptor is required.

It supports 10BASE-T, 100Base-TX and 1000BASE-T signalling, enabling autonegotiation across those speeds.

It implements IEEE 802.1q VLAN tagging to mark and segregate frames for organised network separation.

It adheres to IEEE 802.3x for full-duplex flow control and general IEEE 802.3 family behaviours for wired Ethernet.
