Introduction: The Small Connector That Solves Big Networking Problems
In today’s digital age, dependable wired networks are as critical as power. Whether you’re building a small home office, wiring a school lab, or maintaining a data center, there’s one common challenge—you often need to extend or join Ethernet cables neatly, reliably, and without signal degradation.
The UGREEN RJ45 Network Keystone Jack Inline Coupler (NW114) is engineered for exactly that. It offers a secure and seamless female-to-female connection between two Ethernet cables, delivering fast and stable data transfer up to 10Gbps.
Now available at Phonex Technologies Kenya, this keystone coupler fits easily into patch panels, wall plates, and surface mount boxes, helping you build a more scalable, manageable, and future-proof network.
