WinRaybot Ethernet Splitter 1 to 2 2-Port Gigabit Hub

WinRaybot Ethernet Splitter 1 to 2 turns one Ethernet feed into two independent Gigabit-capable LAN connections in a compact, USB-powered adapter.

When you need extra wired ports without running new cable or buying a larger switch, the WinRaybot 2-port Ethernet hub offers a space-saving solution. Each unit accepts a single incoming RJ45 line and provides two gigabit-rated outputs, supporting Cat5/6/7/8 cable standards and common home networking equipment. The package includes two identical adapters and USB power cable(s) so you can expand connections quickly and cleanly.

How does this adapter split one Ethernet line into two usable connections?

The splitter routes the single upstream Ethernet link into two separate downstream ports using an internal gigabit switching chipset. It can power both outputs simultaneously, letting two devices share the physical input while maintaining proper packet separation and minimizing interference.

• Internal chipset supports up to 1000 Mbps aggregated throughput per set.
• Two RJ45 outputs let two devices connect where only one cable exists.
• Built-in surge protection reduces risk from electrical spikes.

Will I get full-speed gigabit performance on both connected devices?

The device is engineered for gigabit signaling, but bandwidth distribution depends on the upstream connection and the devices attached. One device can achieve up to the maximum supported link speed; when both are active, they share the available upstream capacity.

• Rated maximum: 1000 Mbps per connection set, subject to upstream limits.
• No crosstalk design preserves clean signals between outputs.
• Actual speeds vary with router/modem capability and cable quality.

How do I set it up and power the splitter?

Setup is plug-and-play: insert the incoming Ethernet to the adapter's input, connect each output to a device, and attach the included USB cable to power. No drivers or configuration are required, making deployment fast for home or small office use.

• Connect input RJ45 to your modem/router line.
• Plug two downstream RJ45 cables into devices (PC, TV, set-top box).
• Attach included USB power cable to any 5V USB power source; LEDs show activity.

Which cables and equipment does it work with?

The WinRaybot splitter accepts Cat5, Cat5e, Cat6, Cat7 and Cat8 cabling and interoperates with common network gear such as routers, switches, set-top boxes and satellite terminals. For best stability and top speeds, use Cat6 or higher and ensure the upstream port supports gigabit.

• Compatible with Starlink, ADSL, routers, bridges, and networked media devices.
• Recommended: Cat6 cable for optimal throughput and reduced signal loss.
• Sleek aluminum housing fits discreetly in entertainment centers or network closets.

Who is this for: The WinRaybot Ethernet Splitter 1 to 2 is ideal for users who need two wired network connections but only have one cable run available—such as apartments, home offices, media cabinets, or temporary setups. It's suited to homeowners, small-business operators, and installers who want a compact, low-cost way to expand Ethernet ports without extensive rewiring or bulkier switches. If you require managed switching features, VLANs, or guaranteed per-port bandwidth control, consider a managed switch; for fast, straightforward port expansion with minimal setup, this 2-port gigabit adapter is a practical choice.
