UGREEN Ethernet splitter 1 to 2 RJ45 8P8C (pack of 2)

UGREEN Ethernet splitter 1 to 2 RJ45 8P8C (pack of 2) is a compact passive adapter set that allows one wired Ethernet connection to be shared between two devices where the network cable and equipment support split operation. Supplied as two identical RJ45 8P8C adapters, the splitter does not require power or configuration and is intended for simple home or small office scenarios where a dedicated network switch is not available or necessary. The adapters are compact and portable, making them easy to store or carry as spare network accessories.

Advantages

The UGREEN Ethernet splitter enables network sharing without additional power or software, offering an immediate way to connect two devices using a single Ethernet line. As passive adapters, they present a low-cost and low-complexity alternative to powered switches when used in supported wiring setups. The pack of two provides redundancy or coverage for multiple locations, and the small form factor reduces cable clutter while remaining compatible with standard RJ45 8P8C connectors.

Suitable for

• Connecting two devices (PC, printer, IPTV box or game console) to a single Ethernet cable in homes
• Temporary network setups in small offices or meeting rooms
• Situations where running a second cable is impractical and network equipment supports split wiring

Key specifications

• Connector type: RJ45 8P8C (male/female as applicable to adapter)
• Function: Passive splitting of one Ethernet line into two ports (requires compatible wiring at both ends)
• Power: Passive, no external power required
• Number of adapters in pack: 2
• Form factor: Compact, lightweight adapters for inline use

How to use

Insert one adapter into the existing Ethernet cable or patch lead and connect the two device cables to the adapter’s two RJ45 ports. A matching splitter or wiring arrangement is required at the other end of the cable to rejoin the signals for proper network operation; typically this means using the second adapter or an appropriate wiring patch panel. No software setup or power is needed. Verify that connected devices do not require simultaneous full-duplex, high-bandwidth connections on the same physical pair set, and that the network runs at compatible speeds when split.

Usage recommendations

Use the splitters only in environments where the network cable and both endpoints are configured to support passive splitting. For stable multi-device connections or high-performance needs, consider a network switch. Keep connectors clean and avoid strain on cables to maintain reliable contacts.
