Hellermann Tyton Coolport is a product that enables users to quickly connect more than one product into a single Cat 5 outlet. They are simple plug and play devices making the Coolport ideal for quick fixes in an emergency.
Cat 5 cabling has 4 pairs of wires running through it and a lot of every day products only use two of these wires. What the Hellermann Tyton Coolport does is tap into these 4 wires and split them up so more than one product can be plugged in.
Each of the Hellermann Tyton Coolport devices have been specially configured to work with specific types of devices. Therefore it is important to choose the right Coolport for what you are planning to use with it.
