Network cable gender changer Telegärtner J00029K0052 — RJ45 to RJ45, white

Telegärtner J00029K0052 is a compact RJ45-to-RJ45 cable gender changer in white that provides female RJ45 connectors on both ends to convert cable orientation or join compatible Ethernet leads. The passive adapter supports typical LAN use cases where reversing connector gender or extending a temporary link is required. Designed and manufactured in Germany, it is built to integrate with Cat.6 infrastructure and complies with key performance characteristics for structured cabling.

Advantages

The adapter is compact and passive, requiring no power or configuration. It is produced with fully automated Cat.6 jack assembly processes to ensure consistent contact quality and uses optical inspection of RJ45 contact heights to maintain reliable connections. The device is suitable for PoE+ operation and meets parameters relevant to 10 Gigabit-Ethernet environments in line with IEEE 802.3an considerations, while offering typical Next reserves of 12 dB (Permanent Link Class E).

Suitable for

• Reversing RJ45 connector gender on existing patch cords
• Temporarily extending Ethernet links during troubleshooting or maintenance
• Adapting patch cables in LAN rack or wall-plate installations
• Use with PoE+ devices where passive gender adaptation is required

Key specifications

• Connector type: RJ45 female to RJ45 female
• Color: white
• Category support: Cat.6 assembly standard; Permanent Link Class E characteristics
• Performance note: compatible with 10 Gigabit-Ethernet considerations (IEEE 802.3an)
• PoE: suitable for PoE+ applications
• Manufacture origin: Made in Germany

How to use

Insert each RJ45 plug into the female RJ45 sockets of the gender changer until the plug latches engage. Ensure the connector orientation is correct and the plugs are fully seated to maintain electrical contact. The adapter is passive and does not require configuration; once connected it functions as a direct pass-through for the eight conductors of the Ethernet cable. For troubleshooting or temporary link extension, verify link lights on connected devices to confirm connectivity.

Usage recommendations

Use the gender changer for short-term or diagnostic connections rather than as a permanent in-line solution. Avoid subjects to excessive mechanical stress or repeated strain on the connectors; secure cables to reduce movement. When using PoE+ devices, ensure connected equipment and cabling meet power and thermal requirements.
