Waterproof RJ45 Connector 2 Pack IP68 Cat6/Cat5E/Cat5 Coupler Shielded for Outdoor Ethernet LAN Cable Extender Female to Female

needed to connect two RJ45 connectors that network different instruments on a boat, wires had to be cut & re-terminated to fit through an opening. These replaced several attempts at various other F-F connectors that had all failed to maintain a solid connection. While it is inside the boat so waterproofing was not required, this is well made and very solid, connection has been reliable and robust, and the fact it's waterproof is a nice bonus. I'm a network engineer so I have extensive experience with networking gear, and while it's only been installed a month my experience tells me that this unit feels like something that will be reliable for many problem free years.

Installed in a partially covered area, gets wet when the wind blows the rain. No failures.

break in an outdoor line that I repaired with this, and going on 2 years and its still working fine.

Starlink Ver #1 end is two large. NOTE: a waterproof box does not account for interior condensation, see photo above, mine looked the same. interior condensation can still be a problem that needs to be addressed.

Easy to use, well build for plastic parts. I am not sure how many years they'd last in direct sunlight, but I wouldn't hesitate in a slightly shielded outdoor application. Water proof worthiness seems very good, a nice tight gland that form fits the cable. Over all I like it and it's better than the indoor ones, providing more over all protection for the RJ45 connection points.

Love them simple easy and works well

We used one of these to repair a CAT6 going to a POE camera... We are camera install experts, thought I'd try this. It looked really high quality and well sealed. We re-terminated the RJ45's, even went the extra step of using G624 silicon dielectric waterproofing grease. After the repair it was fine, then it rained for a couple days and the client called saying the camera stopped working. I went out for the service call and I tested the cable with a CAT6 verifier, the coupler was totally fried, all the internal wires were shorted, when I took it apart water leaked out, but since I had the silicon grease that seals and it repels water, is non conductive, and can handle high voltage, it doesn't make sense other than the internal conductors are ultra thin wire that easily shorts or something. Horrible trash that cost me time and money, never buy this, it can't handle a little rain or apparently POE 5 watts... Junk

Husband loved the convenience of this connector.
