Club 3D CAC-1520 — USB-C to 2.5 Gigabit Ethernet Adapter
2.5 GigabitUSB-C 5 GbpsRealtek RTL8156BGBlack
The Club 3D CAC-1520 is an USB-C to 2.5 Gigabit Ethernet adapter that adds a wired 2.5 Gigabit Ethernet port to a laptop, desktop PC, tablet or thin client through its USB-C port. It is the USB-C version of the Club 3D CAC-1420. It is built on the Realtek RTL8156BG controller and connects at 10/100/1000/2500 Mbps. It draws its power from the USB port, so there is no separate power supply to carry. A cable connection is the dependable answer when Wi-Fi is weak, crowded or not allowed, when a slim laptop has no network socket, or when backups, large downloads and video calls need a steady, low-latency link.
Compatibility — check before buying:
Check the port: the adapter has a USB-C plug and does not fit USB-A ports; any USB-C data port works, including Thunderbolt 3/4 and USB4 ports. 2.5 Gbps needs a 2.5G partner: the switch, router or NAS port must also support 2.5GBASE-T, otherwise the link runs at 1 Gbps. Use a USB 3.x (5 Gbps) port — on USB 2.0 the speed drops sharply. Cat5e cable is enough for 2.5 Gbps. Operating systems listed by Club 3D: Windows 11, macOS (current versions listed by Club 3D). Not sure it suits your laptop, dock or switch? Tell us the model and we check it.

Frequently Asked Questions
Singular Expert Insight
We suggest the CAC-1520 for USB-C laptops and mini PCs that should connect to a 2.5G switch or NAS. The CAC-2530 goes to 5 Gbps but needs a 10 Gbps USB-C port. Browse more network cards or network switches. Local support in Cyprus comes with every order.
