Compact, Bus-powered Adapter Adds Instant 2.5 Gigabit Ethernet Connectivity to Computers with USB-C® or Thunderbolt™ ports
What’s New: Sonnet Technologies today announced the Solo2.5G™ USB-C® to 2.5 Gigabit Ethernet (2.5GbE) adapter, a new low-cost addition to Sonnet’s comprehensive array of wired Ethernet network adapters. Featuring NBASE-T™ (multigigabit) Ethernet technology, the Solo2.5G adapter adds 2.5GbE and Gigabit (GbE) network connectivity to a broad array of computers and iPad® tablets, enabling superfast data transfers over the existing Ethernet network cabling infrastructure found in most buildings today.
What It Does: Measuring just 1.2 inches wide by 2.8 inches long by 0.6 inches tall, the Solo2.5G is a compact, fanless 2.5 Gigabit Ethernet adapter for Mac®, Windows®, Chromebook™, and Linux® computers and iPad® tablets. Equipped with an RJ45 port plus link and activity LED indicators, the adapter supports 2.5GbE (aka 2.5GBASE-T) connectivity via common Cat 5e (or better) copper cabling at distances of up to 100 meters. The adapter’s 0.3-meter captive USB-C cable connects to a USB-C or Thunderbolt™ (Type-C®) port on a computer or tablet and is bus-powered for convenient, energy-efficient, and portable operation.
Why It’s Important: The Sonnet Solo2.5G takes advantage of NBASE-T technology to offer users a simple and inexpensive solution for adding faster network connectivity to computers and iPad tablets equipped with USB-C and Thunderbolt (Type-C) ports.
When used with a 2.5Gb Ethernet-capable switch, network-attached storage (NAS) device, or Wi-Fi router, the Sonnet adapter can deliver performance at 250% the speed of Gigabit Ethernet without a wiring upgrade, saving organizations the expense of upgrading older infrastructure. When needed, Solo2.5G also supports 1Gbps link speed.
When You Can Get It: The Solo2.5G USB-C to 2.5 Gigabit Ethernet adapter (part number SOLO-NBASE-T) is available now from Sonnet and soon from its worldwide distribution and reseller partners at the suggested retail price of $24.99.
