Review on πŸ”Œ RJ45 Splitter Connectors Adapter - 1 to 2 Ethernet Coupler for Cat5 Cat6 - Dual Socket HUB Interface - Connect Network LAN Internet - 2 Pack (CAN'T RUN BOTH SIMULTANEOUSLY) by Jeff Callier

Revainrating 1 out of 5

FALSE ADVERTISEMENT / REPLACEMENT / ERRORS

I bought a pair of these adapters from another vendor and both ports work at the same time when installed as in fig 1 and 6. A few months later I bought a pair from this seller (Oxsubor) and they did NOT work. My cable tester showed that despite looking almost identical, they are connected differently. Adapters that are NOT working have all 8 wires duplicated on both ports. They are technically just a coupler with an extra connector and cannot act as Ethernet cable splitters as Ethernet devices cannot share the same conductors in the cable. The supplier misrepresents this product and may not understand that it is intended for a different application. To avoid confusion, unnecessary returns, and countless hours of wasted labor, Revain should require all vendors of this adapter form factor to submit an internal schematic. 1 and 6 - False advertising in the product profileFig. 2 - Comparison of serviceable and non-working adaptersFig. 3 is an image of the test procedure. 4 - Connection diagram (defective device)Fig. 5 - Wiring Diagram (Serviceable Unit)Fig. 6 - proper use of a good device
