Two black RJ45 inline couplers, female to female, 5 in cable length

LUOM

LUOM Network HeadX2 RJ45 Coupler 2-Pack Black

SKU CH-8N3J-95Y07

Two shielded RJ45 female-to-female couplers extend Ethernet links up to 10 Gbps while meeting Cat6 TIA/EIA 568-C.2 performance

  • Cable length5 in (12.7 cm)
  • Connector typeRJ45
  • Product colorBlack
  • Extends Ethernet reach by joining two short cables
  • Supports up to 10 Gbps with Cat6 or Cat7 cable
  • Nickel-plated contacts and snap-in clip give a secure, corrosion-free link
  • Meets Category 6 performance per TIA/EIA 568-C.2 standard
  • Two couplers included for multiple connection points

In-Line RJ45 Coupler Pair

This two-pack of black RJ45 female-to-female couplers joins two Ethernet patch cables to create a longer run. Each unit uses 8P8C nickel-plated contacts inside a fire-retardant housing. The coupler is rated to Category 6 performance under the TIA/EIA 568-C.2 standard and carries RoHS compliance. It supports network speeds up to 10 Gbps with Cat6 or Cat7 cables.

Extending Existing Patch Cables

Installers who need to bridge two shorter cables in a home, office or rack will find this coupler straightforward. It is not suited for outdoor burial, PoE injector applications requiring specific pin wiring, or situations demanding a shielded metal shell instead of plastic. Buyers who want a single-gang wall plate or a keystone module should look at a different form factor.

Category 6 TIA/EIA 568-C.2 Rating

The decisive specification is the verified Category 6 rating under the TIA/EIA 568-C.2 standard, which guarantees performance up to 10 Gbps on compatible cabling. Without this certification a coupler may introduce crosstalk or insertion loss that degrades high-speed links. The RoHS mark confirms restricted-substance compliance for regulated projects.

Questions about this item

Does the RJ45 coupler support 10 Gbps speeds on Cat6 cable?

Yes, it meets Category 6 performance per TIA/EIA 568-C.2 and is rated up to 10 Gbps with Cat6 or Cat7 cables.

What physical space does each inline coupler need?

Each coupler is about 5 in. long with RJ45 8P8C female ports on both ends, so allow that length plus cable bend radius.

How do I install the coupler without losing the connection?

Push each cable plug in until the retaining clip clicks; the nickel-plated contacts and snap-in clip prevent accidental disconnects.
