USB-C to Ethernet Adapter Price

A usb-c to ethernet adapter price is usable after each factory prices the same BOM. LinkScope Sourcing 22 lines up those replies. It does not publish a live shelf price, and it does not hold dongles for same-week pull.

USB-C ethernet adapter beside a written bill of materials

Evidence ledger for a USB-C quotation

Each row is a document or a number the proposed supplier should tie to one model. A family page that covers several shells does not fill the row.

Ledger rowBind it toReject when
Datasheet revision Manufacturer and model string printed on the shell The PDF title is a series name
Chipset and driver Operating system versions the buyer actually images The note says “plug and play” with no chipset
PHY speed 10/100, 1000BASE-T, or 2.5GBASE-T as tested The box art shows a gigabit icon the datasheet does not repeat
Bus power Milliamp draw at 5 V on the USB-C port A 900 mA USB 3 figure is copied from a different SKU
Mechanical fit Body width in millimetres and captive-cable length in centimetres A photo crops the neighboring-port clash
Regulatory file FCC equipment authorization or supplier declaration that names this model, if the factory claims one A logo is printed without a file number

Costs that must be separate from the unit line include freight to the US destination, duties if the Incoterm leaves them with the buyer, a spare carton, a driver USB stick if one is billed, and any external 5 V supply. Warranty length and the return address are exclusions until written. A software license is uncommon on a plain dongle; if a management utility is billed, put it on its own line so the usb-c to ethernet adapter price is not hiding a subscription.

Return loss and insertion loss belong to the channel if a test lab will certify the link. Ask whether the quotation includes a 1 m or 2 m patch cord. If it does not, the adapter number and the cord number should not be added in someone’s head before comparison. TIA-568 is a cabling question source, not a certificate this desk issues.

Procurement scenario: two USB-C shells with one nickname

Background: the buyer’s nickname is “the purple gigabit stick,” quantity 120 pieces, destination a Midwest warehouse, requested ship window six weeks. Process: factories are told to quote USB-C, state 1000BASE-T or a lower PHY explicitly, list driver builds for one named OS, and show body width. Result: one reply is 100 Mb/s with a longer captive cable, the other is 1000BASE-T with a short body. The nickname is dropped. Comparison waits until freight and the included cord length match. No host pair has been tested by this desk.

Questions that keep a USB-C quote comparable

Which requirements must every supplier quote?

Exact model, chipset, PHY speed, bus-power draw, connector style, included cable length, quantity basis, currency, Incoterm, lead time basis, and the evidence file names. Destination is required even when freight is still an estimate, because the estimate has to name a place.

Which costs need their own lines?

Freight, duties, a replacement shell, printed driver media, an external supply, and any utility that is not the adapter itself. Packing for a 120-piece carton is not the same cost as a single retail blister. Write the pack quantity the quote assumes.

Can a USB-A model answer a USB-C brief?

Mark it as a deviation. A USB-A plug plus a separate C adapter adds a joint, a current limit, and another mating cycle. Some buyers accept that path for a legacy image. The acceptance has to be written, not inferred from a lower unit number.

What does the IEEE overview not prove?

An IEEE 802.3 overview explains families such as 1000BASE-T. It does not show that this host controller and this dongle pass traffic. Ask for the supplier’s own test note on the exact model, including the host they used, and keep that note beside the quotation.

Paste the BOM into the requirement box

This panel does not add a file-upload control. Copy the five ledger lines into the existing requirement field, with quantity and the US destination. The desk then asks factories to answer deviations in text.

  • One model string per line, not a series name.
  • PHY speed and bus current with units.
  • Cable length if the jack is on a pigtail.
  • Open items labeled open, including driver gaps.

The catalog can drop an inquiry name into the dialog. Longer BOM text fits this page better than the narrow modal.
