Introduction
The USB31000S/ USB31000SW USB 3.0 to Gigabit Ethernet Adapter adds a single
RJ45 Ethernet port to a USB-enabled computer system, with support for connecting
to Gigabit networks at full bandwidth, unlike USB 2.0 adapters. The USB network
adapter is backward compatible with older USB 2.0/1.x computer systems (speed
limited by USB bus), making this compact and portable USB Gigabit LAN adapter an
ideal replacement network adapter or laptop accessory. With support for features such
as Jumbo Frames, VLAN tagging and Wake on LAN (WOL), the adapter is suitable for
home and business users alike. The USB31000S/USB31000SW USB 3.0 Gigabit adapter
is backed by a StarTech.com 2-year warranty and free lifetime technical support.
