Direct device link

This Belkin Cat5e crossover cable connects two network devices directly without a switch or router. The six-foot length suits desktop-to-desktop or laptop-to-laptop links on a local area network.

Build integration

Both ends carry RJ45 male plugs so the cable slots into any standard Ethernet port on a PC, Mac or hub. The PVC jacket protects the conductors while the gold-plated contacts maintain low-resistance signal paths.

Lifetime warranty

A limited lifetime warranty covers the cable against defects in materials and workmanship. The red jacket makes the crossover cable easy to identify among standard patch leads in a busy rack or bag.

Questions about this item

How far can I run this Cat5e crossover cable before signal quality drops off?

The cable is 6 ft long, matching the length in the specification, so the maximum run without an extender is 6 ft.

Will the PVC jacket and gold-plated connectors handle heat from all-day use in a rack?

The PVC jacket and 50-micron gold-plated RJ45 connectors are rated for normal indoor operating temperatures; no active cooling is required.

What devices must I already have to use this crossover cable?

You need two devices with RJ45 ports — such as two PCs, two Macs, or two hubs — that you want to link directly without a switch.
