Thinkstar 90° RJ45 Cat5/5e/6 Extender Adapter 2-Pack Up Angle

SKU CH-DBHD-98HJH

Two 90-degree up-angle RJ45 male-to-female adapters extend Cat5, Cat5e or Cat6 links in tight spaces while protecting ports from repeated plugging

  • Connect in tight spaces with 90° up-angle design
  • Extend existing runs to reach routers or streaming devices
  • Protect ports from wear caused by frequent plugging
  • Gold-plated contacts ensure reliable signal transfer
  • Wired to 568B standard for broad device compatibility

Tight-Space Ethernet Adapter

This two-pack provides 90-degree up-angle RJ45 male-to-female extenders that route cables vertically in cramped spots behind furniture or inside network closets. The right-angle design removes the tight bend radius that strains straight patch leads and protects device ports from repeated insertion wear. Gold-plated contacts maintain reliable signal transfer across the connection.

Cat5-to-Cat6 Backward Compatibility

Each adapter meets Cat5, Cat5e and Cat6 standards with 8P8C wiring pinned to the 568B scheme, so it works with existing cabling of any supported category. The specification that decides fit is the up-angle orientation — down-angle or straight versions will not solve the same clearance problem. Interference immunity and crosstalk resistance are built to the same category baseline.

Passive Operation With No Power Draw

As a purely passive coupler the adapter adds no active circuitry, so it draws zero power and generates no heat or noise in normal use. The compact gold-plated housing simply extends the link while shielding the host port from physical stress. Performance stays within the limits of the connected cable category.

Questions about this item

How does the 90 degree up angle help inside a tight cabinet?

The right angle bends the cable upward so the patch lead runs flat against the wall instead of looping out, keeping the rack depth clear and preventing strain on the device port.

What does the 568B wiring standard mean for my Cat6 link?

It sets the pinout to the common TIA/EIA arrangement, so the adapter passes all four pairs straight through and supports gigabit speeds on Cat5e or Cat6 cables.

Will the gold plated RJ45 male end fit my PoE switch port without blocking the neighbour port?

The compact 90 degree body is narrow enough to sit beside other connections, and the gold plated 8P8C plug maintains full contact for power and data on PoE devices.
