Description

StarTech C6KEYCOUPLER RJ45 Keystone Coupler

Overview

The StarTech C6KEYCOUPLER is a passive RJ45 keystone coupler designed to join two Cat6 Ethernet patch cables, effectively extending their reach without requiring new cable runs. This is useful in scenarios where existing cable lengths are insufficient for new equipment placement or reconfigurations, such as extending a connection from a network switch to a surveillance camera or workstation. Its compact form factor allows for integration into standard keystone wall plates or patch panels, maintaining a clean and professional installation.

Compatibility

This coupler is compatible with standard Cat6 Ethernet cables, supporting data transfer rates up to 10 Gigabit Ethernet (10GbE) and bandwidth up to 550 MHz when used with appropriate cabling. It functions with any standard RJ45 keystone jack or patch panel port, making it a versatile solution for extending existing network infrastructure. It is suitable for use with various network devices including IP cameras, network switches, routers, and computers.

Installation Notes

Installation involves simply plugging one Cat6 patch cable into the front RJ45 port and another into the rear RJ45 port. The coupler snaps into any standard keystone opening, typically found on wall plates or patch panels. No external power or configuration is required; it operates as a passive inline connector.
