Product details
The GL-2.5G Type-C is a USB Type-C to 2.5G RJ45 LAN adapter that brings 2.5Gbps wired Ethernet connectivity to modern laptops, MacBooks, and other devices equipped with a USB Type-C port. As 2.5G networking becomes the new standard for home and small-office routers and switches, the GL-2.5G Type-C ensures that Type-C-only devices are not left behind at Gigabit speeds.
Delivering 2.5Gbps over a wired RJ45 connection, the adapter offers 2.5 times the throughput of conventional Gigabit Ethernet. This speed improvement translates directly into faster file transfers across local networks, quicker backup operations to NAS storage, and smoother high-bitrate video streaming from a media server. For professionals who work with large media files ? video editors, photographers, and designers ? the performance benefit of 2.5G over 1G is immediately apparent in day-to-day workflows.
The USB Type-C interface ensures compatibility with the latest generation of ultrabooks, MacBooks, Chromebooks, and Windows laptops that have transitioned away from USB-A ports. No adapter is needed beyond the GL-2.5G itself ? simply plug into any available Type-C port and connect an RJ45 cable.
The adapter is bus-powered, drawing operating current entirely from the USB Type-C connection. No external power supply is required, keeping the setup minimal and suitable for both desk and travel use.
Plug-and-play compatibility across Windows, Mac OS, and Linux means no manual driver installation is required on most current operating system releases. The adapter is recognised immediately upon connection, allowing users to get online without interruption.
The GL-2.5G Type-C is particularly well-suited for MacBook Pro and MacBook Air users who have invested in or are planning to invest in 2.5G network infrastructure, and for any professional laptop user who wants maximum wired networking performance from a single, compact adapter.
