Product Description
RJ45-2WAY-EXTENDER is a 1-to-2 port RJ45 Y-splitter adapter for structured cabling runs where a second connection is needed from a single outlet or patch point.
What it does
It takes one RJ45 termination and breaks it out to two 8P8C ports, letting installers run two devices — an IP camera plus a network switch drop, for example — from a single existing cable path rather than pulling new cable.
Key specs
- Interface: Standard RJ45 8P8C connectors on all ports
- Cable compatibility: Cat5e and Cat6 Ethernet cable
- Port configuration: 1 input to 2 output ports
- Typical use: CCTV IP cameras, NVRs, network switches, patch panels, routers
- Form factor: Compact housing suited to network cabinets, wall outlet boxes, and patch panel environments
Where it fits on a job
Useful in structured cabling installs and CCTV IP surveillance deployments where port count at the outlet or cabinet is a constraint, and pulling additional cable isn't practical. Because it's a passive 8P8C splitter, treat it as a physical port-multiplication tool at the cabling layer rather than a network switch — it doesn't add bandwidth or switching intelligence, just splits the physical connection point.
