Qnap QNA-UC5G1T USB 3.0 to 5GbE Adapter

Qnap Systems, Inc. launched the QNA-UC5G1T USB 3.0 to 5GbE adapter, allowing users to add 5GbE/2.5GbE/1GbE/100MbE connectivity to their computers and NAS via USB 3.0.

Users can upgrade their network speed with the QNA-UC5G1T using an existing CAT 5e cable to increase file transfer speeds and work efficiency.

“Both home and business users require higher bandwidth to take advantage of high-performance systems and faster internet speeds. The handy QNA-UC5G1T adapter can be easily paired with Qnap’s 10GbE switch to create a high-speed network environment at home or in the office to greatly improve network speed and application performance,” said Jason Hsu, product manager, Qnap. “The QNA-UC5G1T is also useful for adding Ethernet connectivity to modern laptops that lack in-built network ports.“
