10.x
With speeds up to 5Gbps, USB 3.0 is fast becoming the new standard in
data-transfer technology for PCs and laptops. However, some computers only
feature 10/100 Ethernet ports while Macbook Airs and often Ultrabooks dont
feature Ethernet ports at all. Existing USB 2.0 Gigabit Ethernet adapters are
limited by the USB 2.0 maximum data rate of 480Mbps while our USB 3.0 adapter
can reach speeds of 5Gbps. Upgrade existing 10/100 Ethernet connectivity to
super-fast Gigabit speeds or introduce USB 3.0 true Gigabit Ethernet
connectivity to an Ultrabook or Macbook Air.
USB 3.0
The EU-4306 supports USB 3.0, the newest specification of the USB standard
which specifies a maximum data transmission speed of 5Gbps. Up to ten times
faster than the existing USB 2.0 standard which is restricted to a maximum speed
of 480Mbps, USB 3.0 enables the full capacity of 10/100/1000Mbps Gigabit
Ethernet to be reached through an existing USB port with no need to install a
Gigabit Ethernet card.
Ideal for Ultrabooks
For Ultrabooks or a Macbook Air with no Ethernet port, use the USB 3.0
Gigabit Ethernet adapter for simple plug-and-play Gigabit Ethernet network
connection capability. Take the compact, portable EU-4306 wherever you take your
laptop and ensure you stay connected to fast, reliable Gigabit Ethernet whenever
you need. Provide Gigabit Ethernet connectivity for desktops, laptops, game
consoles or home network appliances.
Supports Jumbo Frames
Support for jumbo frames can offer dramatic improvements in network
performance and raise effective bandwidth. Jumbo frame are Ethernet frames (data
packets) of up to 4000 bytes per frame, in comparison with standard,
significantly smaller 1500 byte Ethernet frames. Using larger frames means that
fewer frames are sent across the network which improves CPU cycles and
bandwidth. For some applications, especially those typical of Gigabit Ethernet
use such as large file transfers, the result is greatly increased network
performance.
Power Saving
The EU-4306 incorporates a power saving feature to reduce power consumption
by up to 35% when there is no Ethernet activity, reducing costs and contributing
to a better environment.
Windows 8.1 & Mac OS X 10.x
Full compatibility with Windows 8.1 and Mac OS X 10.x for hassle-free use
with brand new Windows 8.1 and Mac OS X 10.x devices and future-proof peace of
mind.
