Equip Cat6A Shielded Modular Inline Coupler — RJ45 F/F

Cat6A shielded500 MHz · 10 Gbit1:1 straight-throughPoE++

The Equip 221171 is a fully shielded Cat6A inline coupler with two RJ45 jacks that joins two patch cables into one longer link. It is used to extend Cat6A patch cords in data centres, server rooms and enterprise networks that run 10-Gigabit connections.

The shielded housing protects the joint against electromagnetic interference, gold-flashed contacts keep the connection reliable, and the 1:1 pin configuration passes every pair straight through. Equip specifies 500 MHz bandwidth and 10 Gbit Ethernet, with PoE, PoE+ and PoE++ support for powering cameras, access points and phones through the joint.

Before you order: For Cat6A performance, use Cat6A (or better) patch cords on both sides and keep the whole channel within 100 m.

What's in the Box

  • 1 × Equip Cat6A shielded modular inline coupler, RJ45 F/F (221171)
  • No cables included

What It Means in Practice

  • Extend a patch cord that is too short instead of replacing it.
  • Keep shielded cords shielded across the joint — useful near power cables and machinery.
  • Pass PoE through the joint to IP cameras, access points and VoIP phones.
  • Bridge 10GBase-T links between switches, servers and patch panels.

What Will Not Work

  • It is not a splitter and does not create a second port.
  • It will not make Cat5e or Cat6 cords perform at Cat6A level.
  • It does not mount in a patch panel or faceplate.
  • Not a crossover — pairs are not swapped.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I join unshielded cables with it?
Yes — RJ45 plugs fit regardless of shielding; you just lose shield continuity on unshielded sides.
Does PoE pass through?
Yes, Equip lists PoE, PoE+ and PoE++ support.
Will it work on Cat6 cables?
Yes, but the link then performs at Cat6 level.
Singular Expert Insight · Buyer's Guide
For extending patch cords, a shielded metal coupler of the same category as your cables is the safe choice — it keeps both shielding and performance intact. If you prefer a single cable, browse our network cables.
✓ Buy it if you need to extend Cat6A patch cords, including PoE links, quickly and cleanly.
✕ Skip it if your cabling is Cat6 or Cat5e only — a Cat6 coupler costs less.
→ Also consider Equip 121179 Cat6 shielded coupler for Gigabit links.
Not sure which coupler matches your cabling? Send us the cable category and shielding type and we will check before you order.
