Ethernet splitter QOLTEC 52294 1x3 RJ45 with USB-C power input

The Ethernet splitter QOLTEC 52294 converts a single RJ45 network port into three RJ45 outputs, allowing connection of up to three wired devices from one uplink. The compact adapter is intended for simple network sharing where additional switch infrastructure is not available. It requires an external USB‑C power input to supply the splitter and maintain signal distribution across the three outputs. The device is suitable for basic home office setups, small workstations and temporary installations where ease of use and minimal space are priorities.

Advantages

The splitter provides a space-saving way to expand physical Ethernet access without installing a full network switch. Its three RJ45 outputs let you attach multiple wired devices — such as a PC, VoIP phone or network printer — while relying on a single uplink. The external USB‑C power input ensures stable performance when multiple devices draw power from the network or when longer cable runs introduce signal attenuation. The compact housing and simple cabling reduce setup complexity in constrained environments.

Suitable for

• Home office desks and compact workstations
• Temporary network setups and event installations
• Connecting multiple wired devices in rooms with a single wall RJ45 outlet
• Small office areas where a full network switch is not required

Key specifications

• Connector type: one RJ45 input, three RJ45 outputs
• Power input: USB‑C external power required
• Form factor: compact inline adapter
• Intended use: basic wired network sharing (non-managed, non-switching solution)
• Cabling: compatible with standard Ethernet twisted‑pair cables

How to use

Connect the single available RJ45 network port to the splitter’s input using a standard Ethernet cable. Attach up to three devices to the splitter’s RJ45 outputs with separate Ethernet cables. Plug a compatible USB‑C power adapter into the splitter’s USB‑C power input to provide the required operating power. After power is applied, verify network connectivity on each connected device and adjust device network settings as necessary for your local network environment.

Recommendations

Use the splitter for basic network sharing where only one uplink is present and data throughput requirements are moderate. For environments that require full switching, higher aggregate bandwidth, VLAN segmentation or managed traffic control, choose a proper network switch instead. Use certified Ethernet cables of appropriate category to maintain signal quality and connect a reliable USB‑C power source to ensure consistent operation.
