I am looking for a solution to have two LAN cables coming out of one Ethernet jack: 1 for my workstation/office & 1 to Apple TV. Would this do it?

I tried this Cable splitter and it didn't work for me. I have not found a splitter that will do that. And if your like me, your looking to get the best speed for both units. What I finally did to boost my speed was I got some ZyXEL Powerline Wall-Plug Adapters. Your cable line goes into one of the Adapters and then you have two other Adapters, one for your workstation and one for your Apple TV. The Adapters are not cheap, but if you want the speed you are paying for then maybe it is worth it. I hope that helped you.

Hello, Kristina about the two LAN cables for your workstation/office and Apple TV I would say not to purchase this item because I am having trouble myself connecting my computer and Wii U console to the cables 2 go device. I suggest looking for better double LAN cable connectors for your appliances cause what I bought only one LAN port (Cables 2 Go) is functioning.

No, unless you have (1) a router that can generate two free LAN lines that can be fed to the other end of the Ethernet jack, and (2) cable wiring that is CAT5 or newer (true for all new homes/installations). A cheaper solution might be to use a switch such as TRENDnet TE100-S5 5-Port Ethernet Switch (5 x 10/100Mbps Auto-MDIX RJ-45 Ports) that costs only $11.99 and will give you 4 ports instead of two.

No - I tried this. It will act as a wireless bridge, but it only appears to bridge between another device over wi-fi, not through ethernet. I suspect they did not want to put in the extra effort to convert packets from ethernet to wi-fi and back.

I used a standard ethernet cable. Plugging one of these to each end allowed a crossover between two computers. I was creating an in-home LAN.

I have not tried this configuration, but, this product acts like an ethernet cable using your home power. As long as the units identify themselves to each other, I think it might work.

No. Echoing what the previous reviewer stated, this was something I used to connect my printer to a computer. My guess is that you are looking for an Ethernet cable to connect the computers, especially if you had just purchased a new Apple and were transferring your old data to the new computer, but I would verify this information with Apple first.

I'm not a mac user, but I will guess. If your mac have the right port there not will be any problem. This cable don't have software is just a piece of hardware without any more objetive that connect two ports.I hope this will help you, and sorry about the delay in answering your question.

my guess is yes.. i think two cables out put is just for convenience. not positive. good luck.

If you mean can you send the ethernet/network output into a switch - yes, definitely, I do this at home for a home office. The other output (the built-in split) is the cable and you'd send that to a TV or set top box, etc - that's not network, but RF.

If I understand the question, I'm afraid that this is not designed for the scenario you describe. You need a switch or hub. These splitters are intended to be used as pairs, one at either end of a cable run, and will allow the data from 2 Ethernet cables to travel across a single line to another 2 ethernet cables hooked up to this adapter on the other end.

Yup. USB on one end, plug in an ethernet cable on the other to add it to the LAN.

No. This product does not allow you to connect two devices to a single active network cable / port - you need a hub or switch for that. It simply allows you to send *two* separate wired connections through a *single* network cable. Cat5/6 cables have 8 wires inside them (4 pairs). A normal connection only uses 2 pairs which leaves the other 2 pairs left unconnected - this is just how it is, worldwide. This device (which only works as a *pair* of devices - they will not work as singles) allow you to send two switch port outputs down a single cable, and then split them back out again at the other end. You normally only need to do this (and use this product) in structured wiring situations where you just need 1 extra wired network connection and you dont want to go through the time and expense of running a completely new wire (the wiring might not be easily accessible or the cost maybe prohibitive). Network splitters like this one do not work like power adapters for your 110V/220V supply.

Nope unfortunately ethernet cable isnt up to spec to carry SDI signal. Wont work.

Well I guess it depends on your internet provider, but I was in an apartment with one jack for an ethernet cable in the wall and plugged this product in. I plugged one ethernet cable from the wall to the device and then three ethernet cables coming out to my desktop, xbox, and sometimes even an extra xbox and never had any problems with connection. I would highly recommend this product to anyone. Helped me out for sure.

Ethernet cable in, Ethernet cables out. It's just a switch that switches from one unit to the other. If they're connected by Ethernet cables it should work. I use it to disconnect my computer from the Internet, it works great for that.

Yes. You plug your main ethernet (coming from router/modem) into the device and then you can hook up up to 4 other devices. I have the main line coming into port 1 and then port 2 and 3 are outgoing to my computer and xbox and i have the option to plug in two more devices if i ever need to

I just used 2 standard ethernet cords (each about 75 ft) and used the coupler to join them together. Works just fine.

I don't see why not--it's just an Ethernet bridge. Ethernet cable goes in one module, comes out the other one.
