RJ45 Connector Splitter/Double

KSH 800 EXCL OF VAT

FEATURES:

1. Dual Connection:
   • This RJ45 splitter allows two devices to be connected to one Ethernet port. It splits the signal from a single Ethernet cable into two, enabling dual connections through one port.
2. Ease of Use:
   • The RJ45 splitter is simple to use, requiring no additional configuration or software. It’s a plug-and-play solution that allows two devices to share a single network connection.
   • Typically, one end of the splitter connects to the network port (like a router or switch), and the two outgoing ends connect to two Ethernet devices (like computers, printers, or gaming consoles).
3. Standard Compatibility:
   • Compatible with Cat 5, Cat 5e, Cat 6, and Cat 6a cables, ensuring reliable high-speed data transmission for home or office networks.
   • Works with standard RJ45 connectors and is often used for basic Ethernet networking.
4. Ideal for Limited Ports:
   • Useful in situations where there are a limited number of Ethernet ports on a device, such as a router or switch, but you need to connect multiple devices.
   • A convenient way to add more wired connections without needing to upgrade hardware or add more ports.
5. No Power Requirements:
   • RJ45 splitters do not require any additional power source to operate. They rely on the electrical signal from the Ethernet port to split and distribute the network connection.
6. Signal Quality Considerations:
   • The splitter divides the signal from one Ethernet cable into two, which may result in a slight reduction in signal strength or speed for each device connected. However, for most basic use cases, this reduction is minimal and may not significantly affect performance, especially for low-bandwidth applications.
7. Limitations:
   • Not a true network switch: Unlike a network switch, which intelligently manages data traffic between multiple devices, an RJ45 splitter simply divides the signal. Therefore, it’s not suitable for high-bandwidth or simultaneous heavy usage on both connections.
   • Splitters typically support only one-way data transmission (i.e., one device can send data at a time, but the other device won’t be able to send or receive data simultaneously)
