Five-Pack RJ45 Couplers for Cable Extension

This pack contains five shielded RJ45 female-to-female couplers designed to join two Ethernet patch cables into a longer run. Each unit uses nickel-plated 8P8C contacts and a snap-in retaining clip for a secure, corrosion-resistant connection. The housings are made from high-impact, fire-retardant plastic. The couplers are RoHS compliant and verified to the TIA/EIA 568-C.2 Category 6 performance standard.

Suits Installers Joining Existing Cables.

These couplers are ideal for technicians or home users who need to bridge two shorter Cat5e, Cat6 or Cat7 cables without crimping a fresh termination. They support speeds up to 10 Gbps when used with compatible cable categories. Buyers who require a single continuous cable for permanent installation, or who need PoE power budgets beyond what a junction allows, should consider a full-length patch cable instead.

Category 6 Verified Performance to 10 Gbps

The decisive specification is compliance with the TIA/EIA 568-C.2 Category 6 standard, enabling data rates up to 10 Gbps across the mated pair. This verification confirms the coupler will not degrade signal integrity on Cat6 or Cat7 links within their rated distances. Without this certification, a passive junction could become the bottleneck in a high-speed network segment.

Questions about this item

Does the RJ45 coupler generate any heat or noise when used continuously for 10 Gbps traffic?

The passive RJ45 coupler has no active components, so it produces no heat or noise regardless of how long it runs at 10 Gbps.

What cables must I already have to use these female-to-female couplers?

You need two Ethernet patch cables with RJ45 8P8C plugs — Cat5, Cat5e, Cat6 or Cat7 — to connect through each coupler.

Will these couplers work with the older Cat5 cable I still have in the wall?

Yes, the coupler is compatible with Cat5, Cat5e, Cat6 and Cat7, so your existing Cat5 runs will work without replacement.
