Solo2.5G
USB-C to 2.5 Gigabit Ethernet Adapter for Mac, Windows, Linux, Chromebook, and iPad Pro
Faster Transfers Across Existing Cabling
Have you recently installed a new Ethernet switch capable of supporting 2.5 Gb Ethernet (NBASE-T) on your network? Interested in economically more than doubling network performance at every desk using the existing Cat 5e cabling already in your office walls? Sonnet has the solution — Solo2.5G™, an affordable USB-C to 2.5 Gb Ethernet adapter that provides an RJ45 port for superfast 2.5 Gigabit network connectivity to Mac, Windows, Chromebook and Linux computers with USB-C or Thunderbolt™ ports, as well as iPad tablets with USB-C or Thunderbolt ports.

Same Connector and Cabling – Faster Speeds with 2.5 GbE Switch
Featuring NBASE-T technology (also known as multi-Gigabit Ethernet), Sonnet's compact Solo2.5G adapter supports 2.5 Gb/s link speeds (2.5GBASE-T) over common Cat 5e or better cabling when used with a compatible 2.5 Gb Ethernet switch or 10 Gb Ethernet switch with NBASE-T support. Very affordable 2.5 GbE models from Asustor, Cisco, D-Link, Netgear, QNAP, TP-Link, TRENDnet, and others are available now.Connected to the right switch, you can get great performance gains — 250 percent the speed of Gigabit Ethernet — without rewiring! In case you’reconnecting to a switch without NBASE-T support, Solo2.5G adapter also supports 1 Gb/s and 100 Mb/s link speeds.

Upgrade to 2.5G Ethernet with Existing Cat 5e Cable
No need to rewire your building; existing wiring already supports up to 2.5Gbps.

Little. Bus-powered.
Solo2.5G adapter measures just 1.2 inches wide by 2.8 inches deep by 0.6 inches tall and fits easily into a pocket in your backpack or equipment bag. Enabling truly portable use, this Sonnet adapter is powered by your computer’s USB or Thunderbolt port, connecting via the attached 0.3-meter USB-C cable.

Zero Driver Installation, Simple Configuration
There’s no software for you to install — just connect Solo2.5G adapter to your computer and to the network switch (or directly to 2.5GbE-enabled storage), and then configure the adapter’s settings through the macOS Network control panel, Windows Device Manager, or Linux command line (or graphical utility). How’s that for simple?
Efficient, Silent, and Runs Cool
Solo2.5G adapter supports the Energy-Efficient Ethernet (IEEE802.3az) standard, which reduces the adapter’s power demands on your computer. The adapter runs cool and silent.
Faster Connection to Your NAS
Solo2.5G adapter enables you to achieve faster file transfers to and from your Network Attached Storage (NAS) with 2.5 GbE support.
