Multifunctional In-Vehicle Communication Interface

Hongke 100/1000BASE-T1

USB Interface MATEnet

This product is an in-vehicle Ethernet-to-USB 3.1/2.0 network interface card that allows computers without a built-in in-vehicle network card to connect directly to a 100/1000BASE-T1 in-vehicle network and can also function as a USB-CAN (FD) interface. The device integrates in-vehicle Ethernet communication, a CAN bus interface, and advanced diagnostic capabilities, making it suitable for applications such as automotive electronics R&D testing, EOL programming on production lines, in-vehicle network diagnostics, and data acquisition.

Functional overview

The Hongke 100/1000BASE-T1 USB Interface MATEnet enables connectivity between 1000BASE-T1/100BASE-T1 networks and USB ports. When connected to a PC’s USB port, it functions as a standard network interface card and is equipped with a TE MATEnet connector and a USB 3.1 Type-C connector.

This device can connect a 100BASE-T1/1000BASE-T1 ECU or network to a computer without a built-in network card (such as an Ultrabook, Mini PC, etc.). The communication speed and master-slave configuration can be automatically negotiated with the link partner or manually configured by the user. The device supports reading status information and port diagnostic data via a virtual COM port and can also function as a USB-to-CAN(/FD) interface.

  • The device features built-in status indicators and DIP switches, which provide a visual display of port status and allow for parameter configuration, while also offering advanced features such as a packet generator and cable diagnostics.
  • When connected to a computer's USB 3.x port (backward compatible with USB 2.0), the device can function as a network interface card (automatically adapting to 1000 Mbit/s or 100 Mbit/s transmission rates based on the T1 port speed) and a virtual COM port.
  • The virtual COM port supports programmatic reading of device status and configuration parameters, and can simultaneously enable the USB-to-CAN(/FD) interface function (this function can operate in tandem with the 100/1000BASE-T1 network card function).
  • Based on an open USB protocol, users can read status information and configure port parameters, making it easy to integrate the device with various systems.
  • Hongke also offers a free PC application that can be used for visual status monitoring, parameter configuration, and accessing advanced features.
