VCELINK Waterproof RJ45 Coupler IP68 Short Profile, Cat6/Cat5E/Cat5 Waterproof Ethernet Connector Shielded, Outdoor Network LAN Cable Extender PoE 6-Pack, 3.23in

Please CAT5 cable connections are a must if you are running wire outside the home that is subject to the weather. They are made with high quality materials and assemble easily. I used 2 of them on a security camera install and they work great. These connectors have a excellent water seal on them and they look like they are also UV resistant. So if you're running CAT5 externally that is exposed to weather especially moisture get yourself a set of these you won't be sorry.

I have outdoor cameras with direct burial Ethernet cable. When I have a fault due to a critter gnawing or a mistake in shoveling, I use these connectors to repair the wire. They work well and the Ethernet throughput is up to spec. Saves a lot of time and money in not having to rerun a new cable

These are great, fit together well. Seen to be good quality and offer cable protection. I would buy again

Works as described, water tight after a year in Idaho’s weather

I use these in ground boxes. Connection wise I've never had any issues. I recently have had massive corrosion on some. Pictures show both ends of the coupler was damaged.UPDATE: after I posted my original review the manufacturer reached out to me. They offered to replace my order with new and refund my purchase price. I thought it unfair for them do both and opted for them to replace the damaged couplers. They sent me the replacements with and upgraded version. The upgraded version has an orange color instead of the blue. The newer version also supports cat6a connections.I was very impressed with their communication and offer.While I absolutely had the failure. In all honesty it could have been something my team didn't do correctly. Maybe they didn't tighten the coupler correctly, maybe the wire was just a bit out of spec.I've had many product failures from Amazon resellers. None have stepped up as VCE has done.

This item was delivered as described. Good material, easy to use, and connected my Ethernet cables effortlessly.

I was really skeptical of the waterproof rating. That being said, it has stood the multiple rainstorms that have gone by here over the last few months. Do not over tighten as that will expose the waterproof rings from the exterior. It just needs minor tightening so that the wires are in the sleeve and connections are kept safe from the elements. So good I ordered another round. Enjoy!

It's truly waterproof. Works great.
