The AXAGON ADE-25R external network card easily converts a USB-A 3.2 Gen 1 (USB 3.0) port to a 2.5 Gigabit Ethernet port. Compatible with 10/100/1000/2500 Mbit/s transmission speed. The 2.5 Gb/s network adapter expands the computer with a very fast and stable network connection, adds the missing RJ-45 network connector, another network card, or replaces the original non-functional network connection.

In addition to the 2.5 gigabit transmission speed, the LAN adapter has many functions, such as. IPv4/IPv6 checksum to reduce CPU load with checksums, cross detection and automatic correction, TCP high sending load, support for various modes of Wake-on-LAN, work with virtual VLAN and advanced power management services. The advantage of the IEEE 802.3bz standard is that traditional Cat 5e and Cat 6 Ethernet cables can be used up to 100 m long for the 2.5 Gbps speed.

The metal adapter cover is made of aluminum and provides perfect mechanical protection and excellent heat dissipation. Thanks to its compact dimensions and minimal weight, it is an ideal accessory for laptops. Support for current versions of Windows, Mac OS X and Linux operating systems allows any desktop, laptop or ultrabook.

In all modern operating systems from Windows 8.1 onwards, the adapter enables simple automatic installation without an Internet connection.
