Inline RJ45 coupler for extending CAT5/5e cables

This inline coupler provides a female-to-female feed-through connection for data or voice applications. It joins two RJ45-terminated cables to extend the overall run. The straight-through design maintains the pin-out across the link. The pack contains five khaki-coloured units.

Limited to Category 5 and 5e performance levels

The coupler meets Category 5 and 5e performance requirements only. It supports Ethernet 10/100Base-T signalling and does not meet Category 6 or higher specifications. Gigabit or faster links that require tighter crosstalk margins are not supported by this component. The eight-pin 8P8C interface carries all conductors straight through.

Check that your cables and ports are RJ45 CAT5 or 5e

Verify that both cables use RJ45 8P8C plugs wired for CAT5 or CAT5e. Confirm the network equipment operates at 10/100Base-T speeds and does not require Category 6 or better performance. Ensure the physical space around the jack can accommodate the 3.7 cm length of the coupler. Buyers needing Gigabit or 10 Gigabit throughput should not use this coupler.
