Cat5e RJ45 Male To Female Extension Harness

A moulded RJ45 extension harness that takes one male plug to a female coupler, used to extend a run or to bring a port out to a panel face. Overmoulding the transition removes the loose keystone coupler that normally dangles behind a desk.

  • Overmoulded body is stronger than a snap-together coupler
  • Male to female layout extends an existing run without re-terminating
  • Cat5e construction keeps the extension inside network cable spec
  • Panel-mountable female end can be fixed to an enclosure face

Samples ship within 3 days of confirmation. Bulk lead time is typically 7 to 12 days.

Problems It Solves

  • Keystone couplers pull apart under cable weight
  • Re-terminating a run in the field costs time and a tester
  • Unprotected ports on enclosure faces collect dust and damage

Who It Is For

  • Machine builders adding a service Ethernet port
  • IT and installation contractors
  • Equipment OEMs exposing a diagnostic port

Application Scenarios

  • Extending a network drop to a machine panel
  • Bringing an Ethernet port to the outside of an enclosure
  • Temporary network runs in workshops and events

Technical Features

  • RJ45 male to female
  • Moulded transitions
  • Cat5e cable
  • Extension builds available

Quality Control And Certification

  • Continuity And Circuit Verification. Verifies the physical arrangement sequence of the harness terminals and the circuit topology between them
  • Circuit Configuration Verification. Confirms that a complete, uninterrupted current flow path exists within each circuit
  • Terminal Retention Strength Test. Measures the mechanical reliability of the connection between the terminal and the wire
  • Ingress Protection Rating Test. Evaluates the dust and water resistance sealing performance of harness connectors

The company is certified to IATF 16949 and UL standards. Samples are confirmed prior to trial or mass production, and the approved sample is the reference for every repeat order.

Customization Options

  • Connector family and terminal type to your part numbers
  • Conductor gauge selected from the current per circuit
  • Finished length and breakout positions to your drawing
  • Jacket colour, marking and labelling to your scheme
  • Packing to your instruction, PE bag and carton as standard

Compared With The Alternatives

Inline keystone couplers

A moulded assembly has no snap joint to separate under load

New cable pull

An extension avoids pulling fresh cable through a finished install

Use Guide

  • Keep total channel length within the network standard when adding an extension
  • Support the female end mechanically rather than letting it hang on the cable
  • Check the link speed after install to confirm the channel still certifies

Guides That Cover This Build

Cat5e RJ45 Male To Female Extension Harness FAQ

Does this affect gigabit speed?

Keep the whole channel inside the Cat5e length limit and the link is unaffected. Send your run length if you are close to the limit.

Can the female end be panel mounted?

Yes. Tell us the panel cut-out and we build the matching flange version.

Do you charge for samples of Cat5e RJ45 Male To Female Extension Harness?

Samples are charged for the sample and the shipping. The cost and the timing are confirmed with your quotation before anything is built.

Is a sample confirmed before mass production of Cat5e RJ45 Male To Female Extension Harness?

Yes. Samples are confirmed prior to trial or mass production on every custom build, so the first production shipment is not the first time you see the part.

Can Cat5e RJ45 Male To Female Extension Harness be built to our own drawing?

Yes. We are open to OEM projects whenever you can provide a drawing or a physical sample, and the approved sample becomes the reference for repeat orders.
