Product details
The GL017 Type-C is a USB Type-C to RJ45 Gigabit Ethernet adapter that brings 1000Mbps wired LAN connectivity to modern laptops, MacBooks, and any device equipped with a USB Type-C port. As thin-and-light laptops continue to omit built-in RJ45 ports in favour of the slim USB-C form factor, the GL017 Type-C fills this gap cleanly and efficiently.
The adapter connects via a USB Type-C port and presents a standard RJ45 jack for Cat5e or Cat6 Ethernet cables. At the network level, it provides full Gigabit Ethernet performance at 1000Mbps, ensuring that the absence of a built-in LAN port does not result in any speed compromise when a wired connection is available.
Gigabit wired connectivity provides inherently more reliable and consistent throughput than Wi-Fi ? particularly important for tasks such as video conferencing with screen sharing, large file transfers over a LAN, access to corporate network resources, and gaming, where latency stability is critical. In hotel rooms, conference venues, and offices with wired-only internet access points, the GL017 Type-C provides immediate connectivity without dependence on potentially unreliable wireless networks.
The adapter is bus-powered, requiring no external power supply ? it draws all operating current from the USB Type-C host port. This keeps the travel kit minimal and the desk setup clean.
Plug-and-play compatibility covers Windows, Mac OS, and Linux, with no manual driver installation required on most current OS releases. Connectivity is established as soon as the adapter and RJ45 cable are connected.
The GL017 Type-C is the recommended adapter for MacBook users, Windows ultrabook users, and Chromebook users who regularly need wired network access as part of their workflow.
Compact, reliable, and immediately effective ? the GL017 Type-C is an essential travel and desk accessory for any Type-C device user.
