DELOCK 81591 USB Type-C -keskitin RJ-45 2,5/5 Gbit/s Ethernet ja USB Type-C Power Delivery 140 W, alumiini, antrasiitti/musta

The DELOCK 81591 is a compact USB Type-C hub that combines a multi-rate Ethernet RJ-45 port and an additional USB Type-C port with Power Delivery. It supports network speeds up to 5 Gbps using NBASE-T technology and provides USB Power Delivery (USB PD 3.1) up to 140 W for charging or passthrough. The hub is housed in an aluminium casing and is compatible with Windows, macOS and Linux, making it suitable for laptops and ultraportable devices that require a stable wired network connection and high-power USB-C charging.

Advantages

The hub offers high-speed wired networking up to 5 Gbps and automatically negotiates the best available link speed (10/100/1000/2500/5000 Mbps) via NBASE-T. Its USB Type-C Power Delivery port supports up to 140 W, allowing charging of laptops and tablets while using the Ethernet connection. The aluminium housing and compact, lightweight design improve portability and durability, and cross-platform compatibility ensures broad device support.

Suitable for

• Laptop and ultrabook users who need a reliable wired network connection while on the move
• Users who require multi-gigabit Ethernet for video streaming, large file transfers or low-latency applications
• Work setups that need simultaneous network connectivity and high-power USB-C charging or passthrough

When it may not be suitable

This hub may not be necessary for users who only use wireless networks and do not require a wired connection or high-power passthrough charging. It is also not suitable for devices lacking a USB Type-C host port or for scenarios where USB PD charging above the device's supported input is irrelevant.

Key specifications

• Host interface: USB Type-C (USB 3.x capable for data transfer)
• Network interface: RJ-45 with NBASE-T support (10/100/1000/2500/5000 Mbps)
• Additional port: USB Type-C with Power Delivery up to 140 W
• Housing material: Aluminium
• Colour: Anthracite / Black
• Cable type and length: round cable, 0.15 m

How to use

Connect the hub's USB Type-C host plug to a compatible computer or device. Plug a standard Ethernet cable into the RJ-45 port to establish a wired network connection; the hub will auto-negotiate the highest supported speed up to 5 Gbps. For charging or passthrough, connect a USB-C power adapter to the hub's USB Type-C Power Delivery port; the hub supports up to 140 W, subject to the connected device's PD capabilities. No special tools are required; install any recommended drivers or OS updates if automatic recognition does not occur.

What to consider before purchase

• Ensure your laptop or device has a compatible USB Type-C host port
• Check the device's supported USB Power Delivery input to confirm benefit from 140 W PD
• Consider required Ethernet speed (up to 5 Gbps) and whether existing network cabling and switches support multi-gigabit rates

Recommendations

Use a high-quality Cat5e or Cat6 cable for gigabit and 2.5 Gbps links and Cat6a/Cat7 for stable 5 Gbps performance. When using power delivery, verify that the connected power adapter and device support the required PD profile and wattage.
