DSIT DANICOM CAT5e RJ45 patchkabel-koppeling – onafgeschermd (DS-CP5-UN)

Unlike bulky adapters that force you to rewire your setup, the DSIT DANICOM CAT5e RJ45 Patch Cable Coupler (DS-CP5-UN) simply clicks between two existing patch cables to extend your Gigabit Ethernet link without any loss in performance. This unshielded inline coupler is built around a straight-through 8P8C wiring scheme, so pin 1 maps to pin 1, pin 2 to pin 2, and so on — perfect for joining two CAT5e cables into one longer run up to the 100-metre segment limit.

Highlights

• RJ45 female to RJ45 female inline coupler for extending Ethernet patch cables
• Supports CAT5e networks with data rates up to 1000 Mbps (Gigabit Ethernet)
• Unshielded (UTP) design, ideal for typical office and home cabling
• Gold-plated contacts (50µm) ensure reliable, corrosion-resistant connections
• Compact ABS plastic housing with UL 94V-0 flammability rating
• Plug & play — no tools, no configuration, no power required

In daily use

When a cable is just a bit too short, this coupler saves you from pulling new cable through walls or ceilings. It’s a favourite among IT technicians for quick patch panel extensions, temporary desk moves, and AV installations. The straight-through wiring preserves the original cable pair assignments, so PoE, VoIP, and standard Ethernet all pass through unchanged. With insertion loss below 0.2 dB and return loss above 20 dB, the signal stays clean even at Gigabit speeds. The coupler has been tested for more than 750 mating cycles, so it can be unplugged and reconnected many times without degradation.
