The USB 2.0 Ethernet adapter allows your computer to instantly connect to a 10 / 100 Mbps network through a USB port. This is an easy way to add network connectivity without the hassle of opening your computer case and installing an internal card. It's also an ideal USB-to-LAN alternative for games consoles that need network access in an environment lacking wireless capability.
Compared with the USB 1.1 standard which offers 12 Mbps speed, the adapters compliance with USB 2.0 (480 Mbps) ensures true 10 / 100 Mbps network speed. Furthermore, the adapter is compact and powered solely by the USB port so no external power supply is needed.
