Shielded Cat6 Waterproof RJ45 Inline Cable Coupler – Industrial & Outdoor
Shielded Cat6 RJ45 female-to-female inline cable coupler with a threaded protective housing and sealing components for industrial and outdoor Ethernet connections.
The Industrial Netware IN-10003 provides a convenient way to connect two RJ45-terminated Ethernet cables in locations where the connection may be exposed to moisture, dust, or demanding environmental conditions.
Unlike panel-mount RJ45 bulkhead connectors, this inline coupler joins two Ethernet cables directly without requiring an equipment panel or junction box. Its female-to-female RJ45 connection allows compatible Ethernet patch cables to be joined without cutting cables or terminating individual conductors.
The shielded coupler supports shielded Cat6 cabling installations, while its threaded protective housing and sealing components help protect the cable connection when properly assembled.
This product is suitable for industrial equipment, factory and warehouse networking, outdoor security cameras, wireless access points, and other applications requiring a protected Ethernet cable connection.

Installation and Compatibility Notes
Inline Feed-Through Connection: This product connects two Ethernet cables equipped with compatible RJ45 male plugs. It is not a punch-down connector or panel-mount bulkhead coupler.
Cable Compatibility: Use compatible Cat6 Ethernet cables and verify that the cable outside diameter is suitable for the supplied sealing components.
Environmental Protection: Proper assembly of the threaded housing and sealing components is necessary to provide the intended protection. The available specifications do not establish a specific IP rating for this product, so no IP67 or IP68 rating is claimed.
Shielding: Use compatible shielded Ethernet cabling and proper installation practices to maintain shielding continuity.
Cable Length: When joining cables, ensure that the complete ins
