StarTech Ethernet Coupler, Cat6a LAN Category, Shielded - IN-CAT6A-COUPLER-S1


This shielded RJ45 Cat6a Ethernet coupler connects two female RJ45 terminations to extend network cabling while preserving signal quality. It is designed for inline extension of shielded Cat6a or Cat6 cables with straight-through TIA/EIA-T568B wiring and supports high-speed LAN environments, including PoE delivery to peripheral devices.

Features and Benefits:


• Supports 10 Gbps data rate for high-throughput links
• Facilitates Power over Ethernet delivery to devices
• Gold-plated phosphor bronze contacts reduce corrosion risk
• Metal outer Shell with ABS inner housing enhances EMI protection
• Passive design requires no power or configuration

Applications


• Suitable for extending shielded Cat6a cable runs
• Used for linking network cameras to PoE switches
• Ideal for tight-space server cabinet extensions
• Can be used for access point cable extensions
• Used with 10/100/1000BASE-T and multi-gig networks

What wiring configuration does it use?


It uses TIA/EIA-T568B straight-through wiring across both RJ45 ports.

What environmental temperatures can it tolerate during operation?


It operates between -20°C and 65°C and stores between -25°C and 75°C.

How Durable are the connector mating cycles?


The connectors have been tested to 750 mating cycles for insertion performance.

What materials compose the coupling assembly?


The outer Shell is metal for shielding while the internal housing is ABS with gold-plated phosphor bronze contacts.

Does it support legacy Ethernet speeds and multi-gig standards?


It is compatible with 10/100/1000BASE-T and supports 2.5GBASE-T, 5GBASE-T and 10GBASE-T.
