SABRENT USB4 to 10 Gigabit Ethernet Adapter USB C 10GbE Network for USB4/Thunderbolt 3/4, Aluminum Housing, Bus Powered, Backward Compatible with Multi Gig and Networks (NT P10G)

THUNDERBOLT 4 / USB4 REQUIRED — NOT FOR STANDARD USB PORTS: Connects only to Thunderbolt 3/4/5 or USB4 Type-C ports; it will NOT work on regular USB-C or USB 3.2/3.1/3.0 ports. Please confirm your laptop or desktop has a Thunderbolt or USB4 port before ordering. Compatible with Windows 10+, macOS 10.12+ (Thunderbolt 3) / 11+ (USB4), and Linux 3.10+. TRUE 10GbE OVER USB-C: Adds a 10 Gigabit Ethernet (10GbE) RJ45 port for wired speeds up to 10Gbps — built for NAS, servers, video editing, and multi-gig networks. Auto-negotiates to 5GbE, 2.5GbE, 1GbE, and 100Mbps. Reaching full 10Gbps requires a 10GbE router/switch/NAS and a CAT6a (or better) cable. SIMPLE SETUP — DRIVERS ONLY WHEN NEEDED: macOS and most Thunderbolt 4/USB4 systems are plug-and-play. Windows and Linux may need the free Marvell AQC113 driver (available on Sabrent.com). Allow 15–30 seconds to initialize; on Windows, disable Energy-Efficient Ethernet in the adapter’s Advanced settings for the most stable 10G link. ALUMINUM HEATSINK HOUSING: The premium aluminum body doubles as a heatsink and runs warm during sustained 10G transfers — this is normal for 10GbE. Bus-powered (no power brick) with status LEDs: green = 10GbE link, amber = lower speed, flashing = activity. Keep it ventilated for long, heavy workloads. BUILT FOR PROS — WOL, PXE & TUNABLE: Supports Wake-on-LAN (WOL) and PXE boot for IT and remote environments, and includes a USB4 cable. For maximum throughput, enable jumbo frames and raise receive buffers in the adapter settings. Backed by Sabrent’s support and warranty.
