StarTech.com Cat6 RJ45 Inline Coupler, Unshielded

Easily extend your network connection with the StarTech.com Unshielded Inline Cat6 RJ45 Female to Female Coupler. This compact and simple coupler is designed to join two standard RJ45 patch cables end-to-end, creating a longer continuous cable run. It is a perfect solution for connecting devices where a single cable isn't long enough, such as linking a wall port to a computer, a router to a switch, or extending an existing network drop.

Constructed to Cat6 specifications, this coupler supports Gigabit Ethernet performance (up to 1 Gbps) and is backward compatible with Cat5e and Cat5 cables. The unshielded design (UTP) is suitable for most general-purpose office and home networking environments where high levels of electromagnetic interference are not a concern. Its plug-and-play functionality requires no tools or configuration—simply insert the RJ45 connectors from two separate cables into each end of the coupler for an instant, reliable connection.

The coupler's durable housing protects the internal contacts and ensures a secure fit for your cables. With its small, low-profile design, it can be discreetly placed on a desk, behind furniture, or within a cable management channel. It provides a cost-effective and flexible alternative to replacing an entire cable with a longer, custom-made one, saving both time and money on your networking setup.
