VALUE 12.99.1107 USB 2.0 to Fast Ethernet Converter

The VALUE USB 2.0 to Fast Ethernet Converter provides a compact solution for adding a 100 Mbps wired network port to a computer or compatible device via a USB 2.0 connection. With a small footprint of 22 mm width, 65 mm depth and 17 mm height and a black enclosure, the adapter is intended for users who need reliable wired connectivity where an internal Ethernet port is unavailable or nonfunctional. It supports standard Fast Ethernet speeds and basic network functions required for everyday office, home or mobile use.

Advantages

This compact converter offers plug-and-play convenience on most systems supporting standard USB networking drivers, enabling quick installation without opening the device. Its USB 2.0 interface supplies sufficient bandwidth for 100 Mbps Fast Ethernet, and the small, lightweight design is easy to transport and store. The adapter’s physical dimensions and solid housing make it suitable for tight workspaces and travel kits where a dependable wired connection is required.

Suitable for

• Adding a wired 100 Mbps Ethernet port to laptops or ultrabooks that lack an integrated RJ45 jack
• Restoring network access on devices with a faulty onboard Ethernet interface
• Temporary or mobile use in offices, home networks, hotel rooms and co-working spaces
• Connecting desktop or compact systems to wired networks when Wi‑Fi is unavailable or restricted

Key specifications

• Interface: USB 2.0 host connection
• Network standard: Fast Ethernet (100 Mbps)
• Connector: RJ45 network port
• Housing color: Black
• Dimensions: 22 mm (W) x 65 mm (D) x 17 mm (H)
• Power: Bus-powered from USB port

How to use

Connect the converter to a free USB 2.0 port on the computer and plug a standard Ethernet cable into the RJ45 jack on the adapter. Most operating systems will detect the device and load the appropriate USB-to-Ethernet driver automatically; if necessary, install drivers provided by the system or manufacturer. After connection, configure the network settings on the host system to obtain an IP address via DHCP or set a static IP as required by the network environment. Remove the adapter by disabling the network interface in the operating system before unplugging to avoid data interruption.

Recommendations

Use a shielded Ethernet cable for best signal reliability in electrically noisy environments and avoid exposing the adapter to excessive heat or moisture. For optimal performance, connect to a 100 Mbps switch or router; while the adapter is USB 2.0 compatible, ensuring a direct USB 2.0 host port rather than a slower hub may reduce potential bandwidth limitations.
