ASUS USB-C2500 V2 - Ethernet Adapter, Black

The ASUS USB-C2500 V2 is an external network adapter that connects a USB-C port to an RJ-45 Ethernet port. It supports the 2.5 Gigabit Ethernet standard, enabling data transfer rates of up to 2500 Mbit/s—higher than the 1000 Mbit/s limit of standard Gigabit adapters. This throughput improves performance for tasks such as server access, large file transfers, and high-resolution media streaming via the 2.5GBASE-T connection.

The device features an aluminium housing to aid heat dissipation and protect internal components. Integrated LEDs indicate link status and network activity, and the braided cable is designed to withstand frequent bending or transport. Weighing 30 grams, the adapter is easy to carry in a laptop sleeve or bag, providing a reliable wired LAN connection for devices that lack one.
