Networking cable Axis 5503-431 RJ-45 RJ-45 5503-431 AXIS

Compatible with all Axis network video products, this RJ-45 coupler connects two Ethernet cables with male RJ-45 connectors to extend cable length. It supports standard Ethernet cabling with a recommended maximum combined cable length of up to 100 m between devices.

Advantages

The coupler provides a simple, tool-free way to join two Ethernet cables while maintaining compatibility with Axis network video devices. Its straightforward design ensures quick installation and reliable physical connection for network setups where a short extension is needed.

Key specifications

• Compatibility: All Axis network video products
• Connector type: Female RJ-45 to female RJ-45 (for joining two male RJ-45 cables)
• Maximum distance: Up to 100 m total cable length between devices
• Cable type: Standard Ethernet (UTP/STP) cabling

How to use

Insert each Ethernet cable's male RJ-45 connector into the coupler's female RJ-45 ports until they click into place. Ensure connectors are fully seated and check link/activity LEDs on connected devices to verify network connectivity. Avoid using multiple couplers in series to prevent signal degradation and keep the combined cable length within 100 m.

Recommendations

For best performance, use the coupler for short extensions only and verify that the total Ethernet run between devices does not exceed 100 m. Prefer single continuous cable runs where possible and inspect connectors for damage before use.
