Know what you need...Jun 21, 2007
By Dimarc67
This adapter is designed for office network patch cabling applications. It simply splits the eight pins in standard Cat5 cabling into two RJ45 ports. Since ethernet networking only uses four pins of the available eight in Cat5, this adapter will use the extra four pins for a second network connection. This means you must have TWO of these adapters, one connected at each end of a CAT5 patch, in order to use them correctly.

The previous reviewers were obviously victims of the poor and incomplete description given here. The manufacturer's web page (http://www.startech.com/Product/ItemApplications.aspx?productid=RJ45SPLITTER&c=US) gives a more complete description, but some networking knowledge is recommended to properly utilize this.

YOU STILL NEED A ROUTER/SWITCH!!Mar 27, 2011
By Robert Hooper "spookytooth"
This product is designed to give two remote computers access to a network. A better description is splitter/combiner. One splitter at one end to combine two outputs of a router into one ethernet cable and then another at the other end to split them back into two. Networks are not like telephone wires; you can't just split the wire to hook up more devices.

THIS IS NOT A SUBSTITUTE FOR A ROUTER/SWITCH!!!

Just what I neededNov 22, 2011
By G. Joseph
I don't know why people are giving this product bad reviews. This adaptor is PERFECT for what I need it to do. Please read the description carefully before purchasing. This is not an Ethernet hub/switch and it is not a one-for-one RJ45 splitter. This is an ethernet adaptor that lets you use the two unused pairs on a Cat5 cable. This is so you can run two 10/100 network connections if you only have one run of Cat5 to the location where you need to connect two PCs.

If you need to "split" an ethernet connection because you have no more ports in your DSL router or home network, STOP. This is not the product for you. You are looking for somehting called an Ethernet switch.

Specifically, this adaptor passes pins 1, 2, 3 & 6 from the single RJ45 male plug to one of the RJ45 female jacks. Then it passes pins 4, 5, 7 & 8 from the single RJ45 male to pins 1, 2, 3 & 6 on the other RJ45 female jack. Because of this, you must have one on both ends or it will not work right. If you only have an adaptor on each end, only one of the PCs or devices will work.

Also, you still need two available switch ports on your ethernet switch. And, because Gigabit speeds require all four cable pairs, it will not work for gigabit. I wish the product documentation were a bit more clear, so I hope this review helps everyone understand what this product is.

Inexpensive SolutionJun 01, 2009
By Michael T. Wheeler
I have a cousin that had an issue with their child keeping the internet hooked to an X-Box 360. They were looking for a solution to keep the child hooked to the internet & also keep their computer hooked to the internet. This item provided that solution. There doesn't appear to be any issue splitting the connection this way. Quick, Easy, Simple, Inexpensive!
