Keystone inline coupler EQUIP Cat.6A unshielded, RJ-45, flat construction, black, 8 pcs

The equip® Keystone inline coupler set for Cat.6A is an unshielded RJ-45 female-to-female connector in a flat, compact black housing. The pack contains 8 couplers (16.5 × 33.5 × 19.6 mm each) intended to join or extend Ethernet cables while preserving Cat.6A performance up to 500 MHz and support for 10GBase-T and Power over Ethernet (PoE). The snap-in design allows installation in patch panels, keystone plates and wall-mounted outlets.

Advantages

Gold-flash contacts and a 1:1 pin configuration guarantee reliable signal transmission suitable for high-speed networks. The flat construction and compact dimensions enable deployment in confined spaces and standard keystone openings. Snap-in mounting simplifies installation and replacement in patch panels and wall plates.

Suitable for

• Extending or joining two RJ-45 Ethernet cables
• Installation in keystone plates and patch panels
• Wall-mounted outlet connections
• 10GBase-T networks and PoE applications up to Cat.6A

How to use

Insert one end of each RJ-45 cable into the female jacks of the inline coupler until the connector latches. For installation in a keystone plate or patch panel, align the coupler with the keystone opening and press it into the snap-in slot until it locks. Ensure cable terminations are correct and test the link with appropriate network test equipment to verify Cat.6A performance.

Recommendations

Use the coupler for temporary or semi-permanent cable joins and in locations where a compact, flat keystone solution is required. For permanent installations, prefer direct-terminated cabling where possible; always verify cable quality and test after installation to confirm 10G and Cat.6A performance.
