I know I have to use two ports on my router/switch and connect them to the splitter at the Cat5 wall plug. Can I have multiple output splitters.

Not on the same physical cable - Cat5/6 cables have 4 pairs of wires. Normal communication only uses 2 pairs. These splitters/combiners are effectively using the 2 unused pairs in addition to the normal 2 pairs.

There are two splitters. Works great! I use the splitters to connect my detached garage office to house Internet network and land line phone using a single CAT6 cable.

This does NOT "split" 1 port into 2. There is no such device in the networking world. This allows you to take 2 ports from 1 end, run them over a single cable, then separate them back out on the other end. It only allows 10/100 communication, as that utilizes just 4 of the 8 conductors in a network cable - Gigabit requires all 8 conductors, so you can't use this for high-speed stuff. Both ends are required for use, and 2 open ports on a switch or router are needed in addition to the 2 devices that you want to connect. For your particular application, you'll need to get a separate 4-port (or similar) network switch in order to expand on the ports built into your U-Verse gateway/router.

According to the 802.3af standard that this device adheres to, Mode B will allow a "hacked on" passive splitter on the other end. The flip side is that while the specification requires support for both Mode A and Mode B the power injector automatically decides which mode to use and your "splitter" or end device has no choice in the matter. "In mode B, pins 4-5 (pair #1 in both T568A and T568B) form one side of the DC supply and pins 7-8 (pair #4 in both T568A and T568B) provide the return; these are the "spare" pairs in 10BASE-T and 100BASE-TX. Mode B, therefore, requires a 4-pair cable." I purchased the TP-Link POE splitter, it is cheap, easy, works great. Mine had a choice of 3 common voltages (5v, 9v, 12v I believe) but other splitters have only 2 output voltage choices.

Yes, but it's either/or. Only one connection works at a time (A or B), not a splitter but a switcher.

Yes you connect a cable from your router to any port on the 5 port switch and it acts like a splitter for the internet, then you can connect other devices to the 5 port switch and have internet access.

Think about it like this, it's like using an Ethernet cord, so two should work just fine. As long as your modem/router has the available Ethernet cord ports for 2. Which it should. The product works great, just be sure to plug it into the wall, the plugs don't really like my power strip, not sure why! So just make room for it, or be aware. could just be my power strip though.

Let's assume you have two devices in one room and two devices in another room with one Ethernet cable running from room to room with a wall connection in each room. You plug one splitter into each room and now you can run two devices on the same cable run. If you don't have enough available Ethernet ports at the router, you will need to add a multi-port desktop switch. You can find several types in the same area of Amazon that you got the C2G cables.

No! This works as a one way splitter. You'll need a switch box. If both devices are accidentally turned on at the same time you may damage your electronics.

This unit replaces the modem and router completely. I have it the cable attached to it, and see no reason why a splitter wouldn't work (except that you may lose some bandwidth). I would try it, based on if it were returnable.

It's two adapters that have Ethernet ports. You plug one near your router and then using a cable connect it. You plug the second near where ever you want and plug it in. It should be that simple. If your router only has 1 port, you will need a small switch.

You'll end up with 10 usable ports total. The 4 on the router (minus 1 for the cable to the switch, so 3 can be used for other devices) and the 8 on the switch (minus one for the cable from the router), so 7 can be used for other devices. So you'll actually add 6 more ports IN TOTAL, because you lose one port each on the router and the switch for the cable connecting them together.

Yes it's a switch not splitter so only 1 source will go through at a time and it shouldn't matter if both are on.

yes there are multiple outputs, but I would just use it as the wireless router it was intended to be.after looking at the one posted I have a different unit

Yea..it depend what are you..connect for and divides. Your source of power from each splitter end

Sorta. One adapter connects your modem/router to the A/C outlet. Then you plug in the second, third, fourth adapter where ever you need to in another A/C outlet. With two ethernet ports in each outlet, you can connect whatever devices you need. There is no need to "amplify" the signal, since the signal is traveling acrtoss your homes wiring, basically, a direct, ethernet connection.
