Bought this because I had a handful of cables that almost reached the distance I needed to go. Rather than shelling out for a new, longer cable, I was able to get there using this coupler. Good fit, great price, fast shipping.
For those who are new to computers (or just buying cables): This coupler does not work with all Cat5e cables, only RJ45 cables. For 100Base-T Ethernet Cat5e applications use Belkin R6G050." Whatever that means - since none of my cables say 100Base-T on them either. It would have been nice if the product description said "ONLY works with RJ45 cables." I have two 50' Cat5e Patch cables also made by Belkin and a 6' Trisonic networking cable and the coupler does NOT work with ANY of them. The back of the package says "the use of a coupler in a network environment is not Cat5e certified. The price was so low it's not even worth trying to return it (assuming they would take it back since I opened the package). So, anyway, if you don't have a cable that actually has RJ45 on it, do NOT buy this.
Not much to say here. It works for me. I gave it 4 stars because it doesn't feel as solid as it could but so far, so good.
Purchased this coupler to extend my ethernet cable. Works like charm and have no problems. What more can I say from a trusted source Belkin.
I bought this coupler to extend the length of 2 CAT 5 patch cables. Works perfect for my situation. Recieved in 2 days with Amazon Prime
