Our snap-in shielded CAT5E keystone coupler is the ideal solution for extending telephone or computer patch cords throughout your home or office. Designed to snap into high-density wall plates and patch panels, this coupler links two shielded networking patch cables together with a secure female-to-female connection. Fully enclosed in a metal case, the coupler protects your signal against electromagnetic interference. Features gold-plated brass contacts and 8-conductor straight-through RJ45 CAT5E configuration with Press-Fit PCB technology for reliable, lead-free connections. We take great pride in our quality control procedures and commitment to excellence. Our snap-in shielded CAT5E keystone couplers are UL Listed and meet all requirements for EIA/TIA standards. They are rigorously inspected and tested to comply with stringent transmission and safety standards.
