Five-pack RJ45 couplers

This LUOM five-pack supplies five RJ45 female-to-female couplers for joining two Ethernet patch cables into a longer run. Each unit uses 8P8C contacts with nickel plating and a fire-retardant housing. The couplers are verified to the TIA/EIA 568-C.2 standard and are RoHS compliant.

Installers extending existing runs

Technicians who need to bridge two shorter cables in a home, office or rack will find these couplers convenient. They are not suited for anyone requiring a shielded coupler, a keystone-mount format or a single high-density adapter for a patch panel.

Inline extension for Cat5e to Cat7

The couplers accept Cat5, Cat5e, Cat6 and Cat7 cables and support speeds up to 10 Gbps. They add no active electronics, so they need no power and introduce no latency. Each coupler simply links the eight conductors end-to-end, freeing you from pulling a single long cable.

Questions about this item

What type of Ethernet cables do I need to connect to the RJ45 8P8C ports on these couplers?

The couplers accept standard RJ45 plugs, so any Cat5, Cat5e, Cat6 or Cat7 patch cable with an 8P8C connector will fit.

Will these couplers maintain 10 Gbps speeds if I join two older Cat5e cables?

The coupler is verified to TIA/EIA 568-C.2 and rated up to 10 Gbps, but the overall link speed will be limited by the lowest-category cable in the chain.

How can I confirm the connection is performing at Category 6 levels after joining two cables?

Run a cable certifier or the link-speed indicator on your switch; a stable 1 Gbps or 10 Gbps negotiation with no CRC errors shows the coupler meets Cat6 performance.
