Direct PC-to-PC link

This Cat5e crossover cable connects two computers directly without a switch or router. The 10 ft red PVC jacket carries RJ45 male connectors on both ends for standard LAN ports. It is intended for hub-to-hub, PC-to-PC or Mac-to-Mac links.

Crossover wiring

The cable uses crossover pin-out so transmit and receive pairs are swapped between the two RJ45 plugs. This allows direct device-to-device communication on a local area network. Standard straight-through patch cords will not work for this purpose.

Molded strain relief

Molded boots protect the connector-to-cable junction from bending stress during repeated insertion. The red jacket aids visual identification in crowded cable runs. No software, adapters or additional hardware are included.

Questions about this item

What does the 10 ft length mean once the cable is plugged into two devices?

The 10 ft span gives you roughly three metres of reach between the two RJ45 ports, so you can place a desktop and a laptop on the same desk or across a small room without tension on the connectors.

What does the Cat 5e crossover rating cap in practice?

The Cat 5e crossover wiring supports up to 1 Gbps Ethernet between two like devices such as PC-to-PC or hub-to-hub, and the pinout crosses transmit to receive so no separate switch is needed.

What does the cable physically need to fit or mount?

Each end has an RJ45 male plug with molded strain relief, so it simply pushes into any standard RJ45 jack on a network card, hub or router — no brackets, screws or extra adapters required.
