Product Information

It definitely isn’t a good idea to try and use this long term, especially when you consider the wires are only twisted together and they are likely to become disconnected if they are moved. The solution I would always recommend, and what I personally do within my own home network, is to terminate your own lengths of Ethernet cable. I see this as one of those cases where it is just easier and less stressful to buy the solution rather than go through the hassle of trying to join two lengths of cable and it still not work out quite as you would like. Use a Network Switch

Once this has been done on both lengths of cable and you have a decent amount of wire to work with, you will need to twist both sets of inner wires together so it looks as if it is a single length.Something to note with using a coupler is that both ends of the Ethernet cables must already be terminated.

If you are looking to join Ethernet cables together, my advice would be to forget about trying and instead get the exact length of cable that you need, at a maximum distance of 100m or 328 ft. That being said, you can always plug the switch into an extension cord to give you more flexibility around where you place your switch. Terminate Your Own Lengths of Cable This will require a few tools and a bit of investment in time and in the monetary sense but is the best option out there in my opinion. There is a wide variety of network switches out there with some costing many hundreds of dollars to buy, but for the purpose of joining Ethernet cables, a simple, inexpensive Ethernet switch will do the job just perfectly.It may cost a little bit to buy one, but it is incredibly easy to get hold of Ethernet cable that is already terminated and comes in a variety of different lengths and colors. One of the better, longer-term solutions to join Ethernet cables together is to indirectly join them by placing a network switch in between them. Joining Ethernet cable with an RJ45 is likely to affect the signal that passes across both lengths of cable, so I see using them as being ideal for a temporary workaround, but not a permanent solution. Twist the Wires Together Any cable that you don’t use remains coiled up within the box, so it can be easily stored away and only bought out again when you need to create a new length of cable. If you don’t hear anything but are using enough force, you will be able to see whether the crimp has been successful by taking a look at where the wires meet the connector. You also won’t be able to remove the connector if you try and gently pull it off.
