Ruth's sister XFN0237 international power cord

SKU CH-4DEV-RGG1C

A 1-to-2 RJ45 splitter adapter lets two devices share one Ethernet line one at a time and requires a paired unit at each end

  • Share one Ethernet line between two computers using paired splitters
  • Expand a single RJ45 outlet into two sockets with 8P8C design
  • Use Cat5 cable type for DSL, cable modem and Ethernet connections
  • No router required for basic network splitting setup
  • Only one computer can be active at any one time

What this adapter does

This RJ45 splitter converts a single Ethernet outlet into two sockets so two computers can share one line one at a time. It is built for CAT5 cabling and uses a standard 8P8C design. The adapter must be used in pairs, with one unit at each end of the cable run.

Installation notes

Simply plug the splitter into the wall outlet and connect your cables to the two female ports; no tools or drivers are required. The critical rule is that only one computer may be powered on at any moment, otherwise the connection will not work. Remember that both splitters must be installed together for the link to function.

Practical limits

This device does not allow simultaneous internet access for both connected computers. It supports CAT5 and CAT6 cables but provides no shielding and carries no certifications. Bandwidth is limited to the single shared line, so it suits basic sharing scenarios rather than high-throughput or concurrent use.

Questions about this item

How can I confirm the XFN0237 splitter is working correctly after connecting it?

Connect one splitter to the wall outlet and the second splitter at the far end of the cable run; with only one computer powered on, verify that the link lights on the active port illuminate and network access is established.

What items are included with the XFN0237 and what must be sourced separately?

The package contains one RJ45 splitter adapter; a second splitter for the opposite end of the cable and the Cat5 Ethernet cables themselves are not included and must be purchased separately.

Which version of the XFN0237 should I choose for a Cat5 network?

The XFN0237 is built for Cat5 cabling and supports 1-to-2 RJ45 splitting; select this model when your installation uses Cat5 cable and you need to share a single line one device at a time.
