Why choose it

This coupler is a simple yet robust solution for extending USB-C connectivity without sacrificing performance.

Gold-plated contacts resist corrosion and maintain reliable connections over time. The snap-in design fits standard keystone wall plates, surface-mount boxes, and patch panels, giving you flexibility in any structured cabling project. Plus, it is fully backward compatible, so older USB devices will still work seamlessly.

The module is designed for tool-free installation: simply snap it into a standard keystone opening. For best performance, use high-quality USB-C cables that support USB 3.1 Gen 2. The coupler does not include cables or a faceplate; those are sold separately. It is ideal for both new installations and retrofitting existing keystone systems.
