There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
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.
Cable Matters (The brand) will get priority in my Energy, Security and Recreational/Entertainment setup.
You can't revive a worn out faulty cable...
And I have boxes and boxes of the other guys unusable cabling.
