MH Connectors MH3101S-CAT5E Shielded RJ45 In-Line Coupler
Shielded RJ45 coupler for CAT5e networks. Features stainless steel EMI shielding, gold-plated contacts & a UL94 V-0 rated housing for industrial use.
The MH Connectors MH3101S-CAT5E is a high-quality, shielded in-line coupler designed to provide a reliable and robust connection for RJ45 cables. It meets the stringent CAT 5e specification, ensuring optimal performance for fast Ethernet and network applications where signal integrity is paramount.
Constructed with a durable thermoplastic housing that meets the UL94 V-0 flammability rating, this coupler offers excellent resistance to heat and fire. The inclusion of a stainless steel shielding layer provides superior protection against electromagnetic interference (EMI), which is crucial for maintaining stable data transmission in electrically noisy industrial environments.
The internal contacts are made from phosphor bronze and feature gold plating over a nickel base. This combination ensures a low-resistance, corrosion-resistant connection that maintains signal quality over countless mating cycles. The coupler is designed as a gender converter, changing from a standard RJ45 jack (8-way/8P8C) to another RJ45 jack, making it perfect for extending cable runs or connecting two male-ended cables seamlessly.
