Does an Ethernet Coupler reduce speed?

No, Ethernet couplers does not reduce speed. Once a connection is established, speed remains the same. Problems result in packet loss, so throughput might be reduced due to resending, but speed remains the same.

Is it OK to use Ethernet coupler?

Yes they can. There are two ways. If the cables are already terminated, then a RJ45 coupler can be used, joined together the two cables. It will introduce a slight discontinuity in the wiring, and there will be small reflections of the signals.

What does an Ethernet Coupler do?

Ethernet couplers are plastic or metal connectors that one places between two Ethernets. The coupler allows one to join cables together and make a longer cable. This computer accessory makes it unnecessary for one to open an Ethernet cable and expose the wiring so it can be spliced into a second cable.

Will Poe work through coupler?

POE will work just fine with a regular coupler. It’s not ideal, of course, but it does work. I do like to make sure it’s a Cat5e or Cat6 coupler and not just a phone coupler. You should be fine on re-crimping the cable.

Will a Cat5 Coupler work with Cat6?

Yes. The RJ45 plug is standard and may only have a different coating on the pins to make it a Cat6 compatible vs. Cat5. You probably won’t receive the same speed as if you were using a Cat6 compatible jack.

Are Cat6 and Cat7 connectors the same?

Do Cat6 and Cat7 cables use different connectors? Cat6 and Cat7 cables will use the same types of connectors. For Cat7 cable which only comes in shielded versions to handle the higher frequencies it needs a whole shielded channel.
