Cat6A Shielded RJ45 Female-to-Female Industrial Bulkhead Coupler with Dust Cap – IP68
Industrial Cat6A shielded RJ45 female-to-female bulkhead coupler with IP68 environmental protection, threaded panel mounting, and an attached protective dust cap for demanding Ethernet installations.
The Industrial Netware IN-31025 provides a durable, environmentally protected way to connect two RJ45-terminated Ethernet cables through an industrial control panel, equipment enclosure, or machine-mounted network interface.
Unlike punch-down RJ45 jacks, this coupler features a female RJ45 port on each side, allowing compatible Ethernet patch cables to connect directly without cutting cables, splicing wires, or terminating individual conductors.
Its Cat6A-rated shielded design supports high-performance Ethernet cabling installations, while the IP68-rated construction provides enhanced resistance to dust and water intrusion when correctly installed and sealed.
An important feature is the attached threaded protective dust cap, which helps protect the external RJ45 connection when the port is not in use.
The connector also features 50-microinch gold-plated contacts, shielded metal connector components, and a compact threaded bulkhead design for industrial networking applications.
