Plugable makes all kinds of handy gadgets to get more from your Mac or PC. The latest launch from the brand is Plugable’s first product designed specifically for Apple’s 24-inch iMacs and addresses unique connectivity issues faced by owners of this rather beautiful all-in-one Mac.
The AD-6IN1 is Plugable’s inaugural iMac-specific product and offers easier access to the iMac’s vital ports without compromising the computer’s sleek design. The handy gadget has a couple of USB ports as well as SD/microSD card slots. The device also doubles as a handy little shelf for holding small items such as a pair of AirPods, making the user’s desk a little less cluttered.
Also being announced today is Plugable’s USBC-E2500PD. This is an enhanced version of Plugable’s popular USBC-E2500 Ethernet adapter offering users Ethernet connectivity of up to 2.5Gbps, plus a pass-through Power Delivery so they can keep their laptops powered and charged.
For laptops that need high-speed Ethernet connectivity and Power Delivery, this USB-C Ethernet adapter can handle high-speed wired networks while also coping with up to 100W Power Delivery pass-through when connected to a user’s USB-C charger.
The new device is plug-and-play for Thunderbolt, USB4, and USB-C enabled computers running Windows 10 or later, macOS 11+ and ChromeOS, or mobile devices like iPhone 15 / Pro / Pro Max. The compact design makes the USBC-E2500PD easy to carry anywhere and only requires a single free USB-C port. With its 15cm cable length, the USBC-E2500PD is ready to be used.
“Having seen firsthand the frustrations of cluttered desktops and limited connectivity options, we wanted to seamlessly integrate into the iMac experience with the AD-6IN1. It isn’t just about expanding ports, it’s about having a natural extension of the device,” said Lynn Smurthwaite-Murphy, CEO of Plugable. “With the USBC-E2500PD, we’ve tackled the challenges faced by laptop users on the move, ensuring they can access a secure wired Ethernet connection, get powered up, and have reliable speeds no matter where their day takes them.”
