HP USB 3.0 to Gigabit RJ45 Adapter G2

The HP 4Z7Z7AA is a USB 3.0 to Gigabit RJ45 adapter that adds a reliable wired network running at gigabit speed to any computer with a USB-A port. It is a handy piece of gear for moments when Wi-Fi is congested, unreliable, or simply not allowed on a secure network.

Plug the adapter into a USB 3.0 port, snap an Ethernet cable into the RJ-45 jack, and you are connected at up to 1000 Mbps. Current versions of Windows, macOS, and Chrome OS already include the necessary drivers, so there is nothing to install and no reboot required. You can be online in seconds whether you are docking at your desk, setting up in a conference room, or working from a hotel.

IT staff will appreciate the built-in management features. PXE Boot supports network imaging and deployment, Wake on LAN allows remote power-up, and MAC Address Pass Through lets a laptop keep a consistent identity on managed networks. These capabilities make the adapter easy to integrate into corporate environments and help-desk toolkits.

The small housing slips into a pocket, and the 3.19 inch built-in cable wraps neatly around it, so business travelers and students can carry the adapter without adding bulk. Gamers who want the lowest possible latency and remote workers who rely on stable VPN sessions will also find it invaluable.

HP backs the adapter with a one-year limited warranty, providing added peace of mind for daily use.
