Splitter for two devices
The AVer AL-US-SP918A-2 splitter expands a single Gigabit Ethernet port so two computers can share the connection simultaneously. It supports cascading to add further ports and reduces wear from repeated cable changes. The unit works with ADSL, hubs, switches, TVs, set-top boxes, routers, wireless devices and computers.
Check your cabling first
Maximum throughput of 1000 megabits per second is only guaranteed when Cat6 or better cable is used throughout the link. Two active devices share the total bandwidth, so each will see less than the peak rate under load. Verify that your router or switch port is Gigabit rated and that existing cables are not limited to Cat5e.
No extra power or software needed
The splitter draws zero volts from the RJ45 connection, so no external adapter or USB-C cable is required. There is no configuration utility or driver to install; the device is purely passive. Compatibility spans Cat5, Cat5e, Cat6, Cat7 and Cat8 cables, though Cat6 is recommended for best stability.

Questions about this item
Does the AVer AL-US-SP918A-2 splitter include the Cat6 cables needed to connect two devices?
The splitter provides one input and two output RJ45 ports; Cat6, Cat7, Cat8, Cat5 or Cat5e cables must be purchased separately.
Should I choose this 1-to-2 model or a 1-to-3 version for my setup?
Select the 1-to-2 model when you need to share a single Gigabit port between two devices; the 1-to-3 and 1-to-4 versions add more outputs but keep the same 1000Mbps total bandwidth.
What does the 1000Mbps rating mean when both connected computers are active?
The 1000Mbps figure is the chip's maximum; two computers share that bandwidth, so each receives a portion of the total 1000Mbps rather than a full 1000Mbps each.
