Tripp Lite USB SMF Fiber Transceiver Ethernet Adapter 10/100/1000Mbps LC – USB 3.0 Type A – 1 Port(s) – Optical Fiber

Connects Your USB Device to a Wired Ethernet Network without an Internet Card Installed

This USB to LC fiber optic Ethernet adapter allows you to instantly connect your computer, laptop, tablet or other USB-compatible device to a wired 10/100/1000 Mbps fiber optic network, even if your device has no NIC (Network Interface Controller) installed. The adapter offers access to a Gigabit Ethernet network when Wi-Fi is unavailable or when a wired connection offers faster speeds. It transmits data up to 5 kilometers (3.1 miles) from your fiber network using a wavelength of 1310nm.

Hot-Swappable for Installation Without Network Interruption

This USB 3.0 LC Fiber Transceiver Ethernet adapter is fully hot-swappable, so you can install it without a potentially costly network shutdown or device reboot. Just connect the built-in USB cable to your device's USB port (which also powers the adapter), and connect the LC duplex port to a high-speed managed switch, router or hub using existing or newly run singlemode fiber cable (such as Tripp Lite's N370-Series, sold separately).

Delivers Full Gigabit Ethernet Performance with Audio and Video Streaming

The compact USB to Ethernet adapter supports full 1 Gbps network speeds and USB 3.0 speeds, allowing you to transfer data efficiently and stream audio and video. The direct fiber connection minimizes the risk of data leaks and electromagnetic interference (EMI). A blue LED indicates successful Ethernet connection and data transfer. The adapter works with Windows, Mac, Linux and Microsoft Server operating systems.
