USB-hub Lindy 43385 Type-C 10000 Mbit/s grijs

The Lindy USB 3.2 Gen 2 Hub & Gigabit Ethernet Converter (model 43385) connects laptops, ultrabooks and tablets to a Gigabit Ethernet network via a USB Type-C port while providing two USB Type-A ports and one USB Type-C port for peripherals. Supporting USB 3.2 Gen 2 (10 Gbps) it enables high-speed data transfers and remains backwards compatible with USB 3.2/3.1 Gen 1 (USB 3.0) and USB 2.0. The compact aluminium-and-plastic housing and bus-powered design make the hub convenient for portable use without an external power adapter.

Advantages

The hub combines a Gigabit RJ-45 Ethernet adapter with multiple USB ports in a single compact device, offering 10 Gbps USB 3.2 Gen 2 performance for fast data transfers and backwards compatibility for older devices. Its bus-powered operation eliminates the need for an external power supply, and the aluminium/plastic construction provides a lightweight but durable solution for mobile setups.

How to use

Connect the hub to a host device using its USB Type-C plug. Plug an Ethernet cable into the RJ-45 port to access wired networks. Attach USB peripherals to the available Type-A or Type-C ports for data transfer or device charging (subject to host power limits). The hub is bus-powered and requires no separate power supply; ensure the host device provides sufficient USB power for connected devices.

Recommendations

For optimal network performance use a quality Cat5e or Cat6 Ethernet cable and connect to a Gigabit-capable network. When connecting multiple high-power USB devices, verify host power delivery or use externally powered hubs if needed to ensure stable operation.
