Well built and engineered
I needed couplers I could open and build custom circuity inside (don't ask) and was very impressed with the engineering and build quality of the internals. Whoever was the hired gun behind designing these as well as the fabricator has done a quality job. Very surprising.

When I asked some friend who were well-versed in networking/cabling if coupling two cables (total length like <75ft) was a good idea, they had some reservations. And responses on the Internet such as on reddit and elsewhere were mixed.

Still, it was cheaper to at least try an RJ-45 Coupler before buying a brand-new CAT6 cable at my needed length.

And I'm glad I did. Because I have had no issues whatsoever. Running several IPERF3 tests on the LAN both pre- and post-coupler, I was able to confirm that speeds were pretty much exactly the same with this specific coupler.

So yeah, highly recommend using this coupler, as long as you stay under the max combined length of 100 meters or so. I think I only went 50-60 feet.

These are truly excellent connectors, very high quality plastic housing, and they have never failed me. I have ended up needing these in difficult to access locations, so if this connector would have failed to work initially or after installation it would have been hours of extra work to fix them. I am happy to report these have worked every time, and while the cost might be slightly higher than the generic offerings they are well worth it! Cable Matters makes good stuff.

I ordered the RJ45 female to female connectors for my home use. The wifi on my laptop is dying. I just need to upgrade the laptop but that is for later. When they arrived was in good shape. Box taping was a little tight as I like to cut the tape and what not without destroying the contents within incase there is a problem. Luckily there was not a problem with this item. I have two in use right now and it is perfect. worked as I expected and as far as I can tell does not effect throughput.

I was hesitant to even go this route and use a connector between two long Cat 5e cables but the reviews urged me to try this first before re-cabling. I'm glad I did! These couplers saved me a lot of time and money and work great! I'm running video streaming and server traffic without a hitch using these puppies. Eventually I might end up re-cabling but not anytime soon! Good quality and highly recommend.

Seem to be of good quality and where I have connected 2 1Gb lines together, there has been no degradation at all. Haven't tried with any speeds above 1Gb as I don't have the kit as yet but hopefully this will change and these will still do the job on the higher speed connections. Very neat packaging too!
