Belkin USB-C to Ethernet Adapter + Charge (60W Passthrough Power for Connected Devices, 1000 Mbps Ethernet Speeds) MacBook Pro Ethernet Adapter…

Initially I purchased ugreen usb hub which contains usb A, hdmi and memory card reader since i wanted memory card reader as well. It was of good quality but kind of heating a lot and battery drains from laptop faster. So i was looking for alternatives and decided to purchase HDMI adapter and card reader as a separate devices since memory card reader is occasionally required for my purpose, but HDMI requires all the time for my second monitor with dell full HD from Macbook M1 air. After I started using this i was very much satisfied. As per my testing, this adapter consumes 5 watts to operate which is good. Lets look into the pros and cons

Pros
1. No over heating compared to my previous hub (litte warm, but compared to ugreen aluminium body heat, its much much better)
2. Battery is not draining fast compared to my ugreen usb C hub
3. it has HDMI output as well as charging port. So no need to sacrifice another usb c port for charging in host devices
4. Works great with mac m1 and windows 11
5. No issues while mac awake from sleep which some users complained that other brand hubs are not recognised by mac when mac book wakes from sleep mode
6. Checked with 65 watts lenovo charger and 35 watts apple charger. It works good

Cons
1. Made of plastic. Could have been in aluminium which will look good as well as good heat dissipation
2. When charging port is used in the adapter along with HDMI port, monitor will reconnect while charger is switched off
3. Type C port in adapter can be used only for charging purpose, it will not support any other connectivity like connecting type c pendrive or another usb hub
4. I am not sure this type charging port on this adapter is pass through charging because when I connect the apple charger to this adapter macbook just charging but mac is not recognising it as apple charger or another brand charger but only recognise the charging wattage. Its not the case if I connect the charger directly on c port regardless of if its apple charger or lenovo type c charger. Mac os was able to detect as apple or lenovo charger and its wattage along with how much power it can give as output. If anybody’s wants the host device to recognise the charger type, i guess apple type multiport adapter is the only choice

I haven’t tested this adapter with 4k monitor. So not sure how much heat it will generate if it connected to 4k monitor

Perfect for iPad pro no hiccup or what so ever

Muy buen producto.

This adapter will support only one display at a time of any type. If you are looking to connect two or more display at same time with this adapter, it wont work.

Check the device support article/FAQ on belkin’s official Site for more info.

I bought this product assuming I can connect two monitors at the same time. HDMI + Display port. Unfortunately only one port will be active at a time. My requirement was to use with two monitors in extended display mode. Doesn’t work for this requirement.
If using with a single monitor no issues at all.

A bit expensive but gives flexibility to connect to any type of monitor, HDMI, display port, VGA or DVI.
