Question

Is it possible to attach 2 ethernet cables together to fix the head for one of them or to make it longer?

Answer 1

By a cat5e coupler. You can patch them but its really not worth the effort if you ask me.

Answer 2

I wouldn't recommend it.  It's not worth your time and you will end up with a very poor quality cable.  Check out monoprice.com for super cheap cables and connectors.

Answer 3

Snail is right. You get significant signal loss with splicing. It is inexpensive enough that you should buy more. Here is some more info on cable.
