💥 Transform your unused M.2 slot into a 4-Port Gigabit Networking Beast!

Perfect for pfSense firewalls, home labs, NAS, and more — without using a single PCIe slot. Compact, powerful, and ready to supercharge your setup.


🌟 The Mighty Mini: Unleashing Four Gigabit Ports from a Single M.2 Slot 🚀

For dedicated DIY enthusiasts, the true joy lies in building powerful, unique, and fully customized systems. Whether you’re creating a pfSense-powered home firewall, setting up a multi-VM home lab, or building a Network Attached Storage (NAS) device, the success of your project often hinges on one critical resource: network ports.

Here’s the challenge — those compact, energy-efficient motherboards we love for such projects often come with only one or two LAN ports, and no spare PCIe slots for expansion.

💡 What if you could add a whole array of network interfaces — without touching a single traditional expansion slot?

Meet the Lekuo IO-M2F8111H-4GLAN — a compact yet powerful M.2 to Quad-Port Gigabit Ethernet adapter that transforms your M.2 slot into four standard RJ45 Gigabit connections.


🔹 The Ultimate Space-Saving Network Upgrade

This ingenious M.2-to-4-Port Gigabit Ethernet adapter uses the M.2 slot — usually reserved for Wi-Fi cards or SSDs — and turns it into a high-density networking powerhouse.

This isn’t just a splitter — it’s a true 4-port Ethernet card, powered by the reliable and widely supported Realtek RT8111H chipset. Each of the four RJ45 ports runs as an independent interface, delivering stable, full-duplex 1000Mbps throughput — perfect for servers, constant file transfers, and lag-free local network gaming.


🔹 Unlock Advanced Networking Possibilities

With four dedicated Gigabit Ethernet ports at your command, your configuration options expand dramatically:
