Product Manuals

Q: Which cable types are compatible with this RJ-45 coupler?

A: This coupler is compatible with Cat-6, Cat-5, and Cat-5E cables.

Q: How does this coupler help extend an ethernet connection?

A: It connects two short network cables together to achieve additional length.

Q: Why are the contacts on this coupler gold-plated?

A: The gold-plated contacts ensure a secure and corrosion-free connection.

Q: Does this coupler require any special setup procedures?

A: No, it has a plug-and-play design which requires no additional setup.

Q: What is the maximum data transfer rate this coupler supports?

A: This coupler supports high speed data transfers up to 1 Gbps (1000 Mbps).

Q: Will this work connecting a 50 foot cable to a 15 or 25 foot cable? It says 2 short cables. Would the longer cables reduce speed?

A: I have mine on 2 100' cables no problem at all

Q: Would a cat 7 cable work? Or would it restrict the bandwith.

A: Thank you for your Inquiry! Using a Cat 7 cable with an Insignia™ Cat-6 RJ-45 In-Line Coupler may restrict the bandwidth to that of a Cat 6 cable. The performance of the connection is typically limited by the lower-rated component, which in this case would be the Cat-6 coupler. While physically connecting a Cat 7 cable through the coupler may be feasible, it's recommended to use matching components for optimal performance. To achieve the maximum potential bandwidth of a Cat 7 cable, it's best to use it with compatible Cat 7 connectors and couplers.
