The converter boasts plug-and-play functionality with an RJ-45 port that automatically negotiates speed, duplex mode, and crossover functions for PCs supporting 10BASE-T, 100BASE-TX, and 1000BASE-T Ethernet.

Its ability to draw power through a computer’s USB 1.0 or 2.0 port makes it suitable for environments where spare power outlets are scarce. Furthermore, when plugged into a computer’s USB port, the media converter automatically shuts down with the computer, conserving energy.
