Subject: [PLUG] question on ethernet couplers

Hello:

I am using the standard ethernet connector, with two ethernet cables, which 
have the RJ45 plug.

Here's the problem, after about 200 plugs/unplugs into the coupler, the plastic 
tab wears out, the cable no longer stays in the coupler and I am forced to buy 
another brand new ethernet cable.

Has anyone found a better coupler that doesn't wear out the ethernet cable RJ45 
plug?

I did a quick look on my DuckDuckGo search engines and dozens of manufacturers 
want to sell you the same type of coupler (which wears out the cable plug tab)

Thanks for coming up with a way to avoid this. And yes, I do need to plug and 
unplug the cable scores of times

Randall
