Five-Pack RJ45 Coupler

This LUOM Network HeadX5 set contains five black RJ45 female-to-female couplers. Each unit joins two Ethernet patch cables to create a longer run. The couplers are built from fire-retardant plastic with nickel-plated 8P8C contacts. They are RoHS compliant and meet Category 6 performance per TIA/EIA 568-C.2.

Extending Existing Cable Runs

Installers who need to bridge two shorter cables in a home, office or rack will find these couplers fit the task. They support Cat7, Cat6, Cat5e and Cat5 cabling with speeds up to 10 Gbps. Builders who require a shielded coupler for high-EMI environments or a keystone-mounted jack for wall plates should look at a different product.

Category 6 Verified Performance

The decisive specification is compliance with TIA/EIA 568-C.2 Category 6 performance. This verification confirms the coupler can handle 10 Gbps signals across the mated connection without degrading the channel. If your project demands a higher category rating or a different mounting style, these inline couplers will not meet that requirement.

Questions about this item

Will these couplers work with the Cat5e cables I already have installed?

Yes, the 8P8C female-to-female jacks are compatible with Cat5e as well as Cat5, Cat6 and Cat7 cables.

How can I verify the link is running at the rated speed after I connect two cables?

Check the link speed in your router or OS network status; a solid 10 Gbps negotiation confirms the coupler meets the Category 6 TIA/EIA 568-C.2 requirement.

Does the five-pack include anything besides the five black couplers?

No, the package contains only the five RJ45 female-to-female inline couplers; Ethernet cables are not included.
