Description

Plugable USBC-E1000-2M: Wired Internet Made Simple

The Plugable USBC-E1000-2M is a USB-C to Gigabit Ethernet adapter cable that delivers a stable, high-speed wired network connection without requiring drivers on most systems. Its 6.6-foot (2-meter) length gives you flexibility to reach your router or wall jack from your desk, making it ideal for remote work, travel, or any environment where Wi-Fi is unreliable. Just plug it into your USB-C laptop, tablet, or phone, and you're online in seconds.

Plug-and-Play Performance

No drivers are needed on Windows 10/11, macOS, ChromeOS, Linux, and even iPadOS. The adapter uses the Realtek RTL8156 chipset, which is natively supported by most operating systems. This means you can rely on a consistent, latency-free connection for video conferencing, large file transfers, or online gaming.

Secure and Stable Networking

Wired Ethernet eliminates Wi-Fi interference and signal drops, providing faster and more stable speeds than most USB Wi-Fi adapters. With support for 10/100/1000 Mbps, you can enjoy maximum gigabit throughput as long as your network infrastructure supports it. The compact, cable-style design fits easily in a backpack or laptop bag.

Check Your Device Compatibility

The USBC-E1000-2M works with any device that has a USB-C port supporting USB 3.0 or higher, including MacBooks, Chromebooks, Surface Pro, iPad Pro, and Android tablets. If your device lacks a USB-C port, consider a USB-A version instead. For those who need a shorter cable, a 1-meter version is also available.

True plug-and-play – no drivers needed on Windows, macOS, ChromeOS, iPadOS, Linux.

Fast and reliable

My laptop doesn't have an Ethernet port, and Wi-Fi is spotty in my office. This adapter solved everything. It's truly plug and play on Windows – I got full gigabit speeds right away. The cable is long enough to reach my router, and it's well-made. Recommend for anyone needing a stable wired connection.

Works, but a bit stiff cable

The adapter works perfectly for my MacBook. No drivers needed, just plugged in and got instant connection. The cable is a bit stiff, though, and doesn't bend easily, which makes it hard to coil up. But performance is great, so I'm happy.

No more lag in video calls

I use this with my iPad Pro to get a wired connection when I'm doing Zoom meetings. It's been flawless – no drops, no lag. The 2-meter length is perfect for my desk. It's a simple product but does exactly what it says. I've bought two for different rooms.

Decent, but initially confusing

I plugged it into my USB-C port, but it took a moment for the network to recognize. I thought it was broken, but I just needed to restart. Once working, speeds are good. But the lack of instructions made me worry. It's okay, but not the best experience.

Solid little adapter

This is a quality adapter from Plugable, as usual. I use it with my ThinkPad X1 Carbon. It immediately picked up my network and gave me the same speed as my desktop's wired connection. No issues after months of use. The braided cable feels durable. Top-notch.

Great for travel

I travel a lot for work, and this adapter is a lifesaver in hotels with spotty Wi-Fi. It's compact, and the cable is long enough. I just wish the connector was a bit more snug – it feels a bit loose in some ports. But performance is great, so no complaints otherwise.

Stopped working after a month

Worked great initially, but after a month, the connection started dropping. I tried it on several devices and same issue. I've had to switch to Wi-Fi again. Maybe I got a defective unit, but disappointed. Not as reliable as I hoped.
