Product information

The external AXAGON ADE-ARC network card easily converts a USB-C 3.2 Gen 1 port into a Gigabit Ethernet port. The USB network card is compatible with 10/100/1000 Mbps transfer speeds, expands the computer with a stable network connection, complements a missing RJ-45 network port, adds another network card, or replaces the original non-functional network port.

In addition to Gigabit throughput, the LAN adapter offers a wide range of functions such as IPv4/IPv6 checksums to reduce CPU load through checksums, crossover detection and auto-correction, TCP Large Send Offload, support for various modes of the Wake-on-LAN function, working with VLAN, and advanced power management functions.

Thanks to its compact dimensions and low weight, it is an ideal accessory for laptops. With support for current versions of Windows, macOS, and Linux operating systems, it can be used for any desktop, laptop, or Ultrabook. On Windows starting from version 8.1, the adapter allows for easy automatic installation without an internet connection.

• Support for IPv4/IPv6 packet Checksum Offload Engine (COE) to reduce CPU load including IPv4 IP/TCP/UDP/ICMP/IGMP & IPv6 TCP/UDP/ICMPv6 control and checksum generation.
• Support for TCP Large Send Offload V1 as well as V2.
• Support for IEEE 802.1P Layer 2 priority encoding & decoding.
• Support for IEEE 802.1Q VLAN tagging.
• Support for IEEE 802.3az EEE (Energy Efficient Ethernet) – power consumption reduction in idle mode.
• Support for Jumbo frame.
