Network Cable Delock RJ45 Coupler to RJ45 Coupler Cat.6 M 90098

The Delock RJ45 Coupler to RJ45 Coupler Cat.6 M 90098 is a compact inline connector designed to join two RJ45 Ethernet cables while maintaining Category 6 performance. It provides a simple, tool-free way to extend existing network cabling for home, small office, or temporary setups. The coupler supports high-speed data transmission and is compatible with standard RJ45 terminated cables, allowing a quick and reliable extension of wired Ethernet runs without re-terminating connectors.

Advantages

The coupler preserves Cat.6 signal integrity across the connection and is built for minimal insertion loss. Its compact form factor makes it easy to position inside cable trays, behind furniture, or within network closets. The device is passive, requires no power, and offers a plug-and-play solution that reduces downtime when adding length to an existing cable. Connector contacts are designed for secure mating to standard RJ45 plugs.

Suitable for

• Extending Ethernet runs in home networks
• Temporary network expansions for events or testing
• Connecting patch cables in office patch panels or desks
• Situations where re-terminating a cable is not possible or practical

Key specifications

• Connector type: RJ45 female to RJ45 female coupler
• Category support: Cat.6 compliant performance
• Data rates: suitable for Gigabit Ethernet
• Construction: compact inline housing for easy placement
• Compatibility: standard 8P8C RJ45 terminated cables

How to use

To use the coupler, align the RJ45 plug of each Ethernet cable with the coupler’s female ports and insert until the plug latches. Ensure both cables are fully seated to maintain proper electrical contact. Verify network connectivity after connecting; for best results, use cables and network equipment that meet Cat.6 specifications. The coupler can remain installed in-line permanently or be used as a temporary joiner during reconfiguration or testing.

Usage recommendations

For optimal network performance, avoid creating excessively long aggregated cable runs; each additional connection can introduce small signal loss. Use the coupler in environments protected from moisture and physical strain, and route cables to prevent sharp bends near the connector. When maximum throughput and long-distance runs are required, consider using a single continuous Cat.6 cable or a properly installed wall jack and patch panel system.
