Lindy USB 3.2 Gen 1 Gigabit Ethernet Converter - Part 43412
The Lindy USB 3.2 Gen 1 Gigabit Ethernet Converter adds wired Gigabit Ethernet connectivity to any notebook or ultrabook that has a USB Type A or USB Type C port. It is designed for laptops without a built-in network port, or for environments where wireless connectivity is unavailable, unreliable, or too slow. Bus-powered and compact, it requires no external power supply and works with a broad range of host devices.
Why this product
Two USB plugs, one adapter
It ships with both a USB Type A and a USB Type C plug, so it connects to a wide range of notebooks and ultrabooks without needing separate adapters.
Gigabit Ethernet over USB
It supports 10/100/1000BASE-T in full and half duplex mode, bringing wired Gigabit LAN to machines that lack a built-in RJ45 port.
No external power needed
It draws power directly from the host USB port, so there is no separate power supply to carry or plug in.
PXE boot and Wake on LAN
It supports PXE and Wake on LAN (WoL), making it suitable for managed IT environments that rely on network-based boot or remote wake functions.
Two-year warranty
Lindy covers it with a two-year warranty.

- Only one USB plug (Type A or Type C) is used at a time — the adapter connects to a single host port
- Does not supply USB Power Delivery to the host device — it is bus-powered from the host, not a pass-through charger
Best for
- Ultrabook and thin-laptop users whose machine has no built-in RJ45 port and need reliable wired Ethernet.
- IT administrators who need PXE boot or Wake on LAN support for managed devices.
- Travellers and remote workers in locations where wireless connectivity is absent, slow, or unreliable.
- Users who travel light — at 33 g and bus-powered, it adds minimal weight and no extra cables.
Trade-offs
- Devices needing USB Power Delivery — it does not pass through charging power to the host.
- Computers without any USB Type A or Type C port — it has no other host connection options.
- Installations requiring a fixed or permanently routed cable — the attached cable is 100 mm (3.94 in) long.
