How to use

Connect the Terratec Connect c2 to a host device using its USB Type-C connector. Plug Ethernet cable into the RJ-45 port for network access or attach USB Type-A peripherals to the available ports. The hub is bus-powered and typically requires no additional drivers on current Windows and macOS versions; follow any on-screen prompts for network or peripheral device configuration if they appear. Disconnect by safely ejecting storage devices from the host prior to unplugging when transferring data.

Recommendations

Use the hub on a flat, stable surface and avoid exposing it to liquids or extreme temperatures. For best network performance, use a quality Ethernet cable and ensure the host system’s USB-C port supports USB 3.2 Gen 1 speeds. When connecting high-power peripherals, monitor device behavior since the hub derives power from the host; consider using externally powered alternatives if multiple power-hungry devices are required.
