RJ45 Female-to-Female Coupler 2-Pack

This two-pack of black RJ45 couplers joins two Ethernet patch cables to create a longer run. Each unit is an 8P8C inline jack that accepts Cat7, Cat6, Cat5e or Cat5 cables. The nickel-plated contacts and snap-in retaining clip give a secure, corrosion-free connection for home, office or lab networking.

Thermals Noise and Power Draw

The passive coupler has no active electronics, so it generates no heat, produces no noise and draws no power. Signal integrity is maintained through the nickel-plated contacts and the fire-retardant plastic housing. Operation stays within the TIA/EIA 568-C.2 Category 6 performance envelope without any thermal or acoustic impact.

Build Integration and Clearance

The compact 5-inch length fits behind desks, inside wall plates or along cable trays without adding bulk. No external power supply, driver software or configuration is required — simply plug both cables into the female ports. The pair frees up longer single cables and lets installers bridge gaps using existing patch leads.

Questions about this item

How do I install the LUOM Network HeadX2 coupler without damaging the retaining clips?

Align each RJ45 plug with the female jack, push straight in until the clip clicks, and avoid angling the cable which can bend the nickel-plated contacts.

What maintenance will the nickel-plated contacts need over time?

The corrosion-resistant plating requires no routine maintenance; simply keep the coupler dry and free of dust to maintain a secure connection.

At what throughput does the Category 6 limit appear during sustained transfers?

The coupler meets TIA/EIA 568-C.2 Category 6 performance, so the 10 gigabit ceiling is the first limit you will reach under continuous load.
