- justinclift 8y agoSorry, no idea as I've never heard of them. :)
- chx 8y agoThat's not 100% correct. You can get them if you buy 500 or more. Product page: http://www.speeddragon.com/index.php?controller=Default&action=ProductInfo&Id=797 http://www.speeddragon.com/index.php?controller=Default&acti... Available https://sybatech.en.alibaba.com/product/60793590161-804423206/USB_TypeC_5_Gigabit_Ethernet_Network_Adapter.html https://sybatech.en.alibaba.com/product/60793590161-80442320... I talked to Syba USA two months ago and they said end of Q1 so I didn't pursue the idea of bringing 500 into the US and sell them. I still might. Do you know any good platforms for this sort of thing? The other reason I didn't pursue this because the Realtek based 2.5gbps adapters are out https://www.centralpoint.nl/kabeladapters-verloopstukjes/club3d/usb-3-2-gen1-type-c-to-rj45-2-5gbps-art-cac-1520-num-11069657/ https://www.centralpoint.nl/kabeladapters-verloopstukjes/clu... (USB A version: https://www.centralpoint.nl/kabeladapters-verloopstukjes/club3d/usb-3-2-gen1-type-a-to-rj45-2-5gbps-art-cac-1420-num-11069655/ https://www.centralpoint.nl/kabeladapters-verloopstukjes/clu...) and I wasn't sure whether people would care enough to jump to 5gbps.

- voltagex_ 8y agoNice! Unfortunately, I don't know 500 people who'd want one and I think shipping from the US to anywhere not-US (say, Australia) would be prohibitively expensive.
