Shielded RJ45 Coupler with Surge Protection

The EN-Labs TLPRJ45FFBK is a black shielded coupler that joins two Ethernet patch cables. It carries Category 6 performance certification and gold-plated contacts for corrosion-free connectivity. An integrated 8 TVS protection tube guards connected equipment against lightning-induced surges.

Ideal for Extending Shielded Runs.

Installers extending existing Cat7, Cat6 or Cat5e shielded links in surge-prone environments will benefit from the built-in protection. Buyers who need to run fresh cable through walls or require outdoor-rated connectors should look at dedicated bulk cable and weatherproof fittings instead.

10 Gigabit Headroom on Certified Category 6

The coupler supports 10 gigabit speeds on Cat7 and Cat6 cables, providing ample headroom for typical gigabit and multi-gigabit LAN traffic. Performance drops to the lower category limit when Cat5e or Cat5 cables are used, so maximum throughput requires matching shielded cable throughout.

Questions about this item

What category-rated patch cables must I already own for this coupler to pass its certified performance?

Use Cat6 or higher patch cables on both sides; the coupler is certified to Category 6 performance and works with Cat7, Cat6 and Cat5e cables.

Will my existing Cat5e cables still work if I add this coupler between them?

Yes, the coupler is compatible with Cat5e cables, but the link will run at Cat5e speeds rather than the 10 gigabite capability.

How can I verify the 10 gigabite link is active after connecting two Cat6 cables?

Check the link speed in your OS network adapter settings or switch port status; it should report 10 Gbps when both cables and ports support that rate.
