Delock RJ45 Female to Female Cat.6A Shielded Coupler with Surge Protection, Orange

This Delock RJ45 coupler stands out by combining a Cat.6A inline connection with integrated surge protection in a single compact unit. Unlike standard couplers that simply join two patch cables, this orange adapter actively guards connected equipment against voltage spikes and transient surges, making it a smart choice for protecting sensitive network devices in exposed installations.

Highlights

• RJ45 female to female, 1:1 pin assignment
• Cat.6A performance up to 10 Gigabit Ethernet
• Shielded (STP) metal housing for EMI protection
• Integrated surge protection with 5 kA nominal discharge current
• Round, space-saving design in high-visibility orange

In daily use

Use this coupler to extend a network run or connect two patch cables while adding a layer of surge defense. It is ideal for connecting outdoor access points, IP cameras, or any Ethernet link that may be exposed to induced surges from nearby lightning or power lines. The gold-plated contacts ensure reliable signal integrity, and the robust plastic housing withstands daily handling.
