What this cable does

This Belkin Cat 5E crossover cable connects two network devices directly without a switch or hub. The 1 ft red cable uses RJ45 male connectors on both ends for PC-to-PC or hub-to-hub links. It is built with 24AWG stranded copper conductors and 50 micron gold-plated contacts.

Check your ports and distance

Verify that both devices have standard RJ45 Ethernet ports and that a 1 ft span is sufficient for your layout. The cable is wired as a crossover, so it will not work for a normal device-to-switch connection. Ensure the equipment you are linking supports direct crossover negotiation or manual crossover configuration.

Who should buy this

Suits technicians and hobbyists who need a short, factory-made crossover patch for testing, direct file transfers or linking legacy hubs. Buyers who need a standard straight-through patch cable for router or switch uplinks should look at a different wiring type. Those requiring longer runs or higher category ratings will need another cable.

Highlights

  • Connect two PCs directly with crossover wiring
  • Gold-plated RJ45 contacts resist corrosion for reliable signal
