Direct-PC Link Cable

This 14-foot Cat6 crossover cable connects two computers directly without a hub or switch. It uses 24AWG stranded pure bare copper conductors and 50µm gold-plated contacts for reliable signal transfer. The red jacket and snagless strain-relief boots make it easy to identify and durable in daily use.

Cat6 Capacity and Limits

Rated at 550MHz, the cable comfortably handles Gigabit Ethernet speeds over its full length. It meets UL 444 and TIA-568-C requirements for pure copper construction, unlike copper-clad aluminum alternatives. The stranded design adds flexibility for temporary setups, though data-transfer software may be required on the host systems.

Crossover Wiring Constraints

The fixed crossover pinout only suits direct device-to-device links such as PC-to-PC or console system-link connections. It cannot replace a standard patch cable for connections to routers, switches or wall jacks. Buyers needing a general-purpose network cord should choose a straight-through cable instead.

Questions about this item

Will this Cat6 crossover cable link my older 10/100 Mbps network cards at full speed?

Yes, the 550 MHz bandwidth and Cat6 specification support legacy 10/100 Mbps adapters while providing headroom for gigabit connections.

How can I verify the 50 µm gold-plated contacts are seated correctly after plugging in?

The snagless boots click firmly into each RJ45 port; link LEDs on both devices should light immediately, confirming proper contact.

Does the 14 ft red cable include any adapters or software for PC-to-PC transfers?

The box contains only the 24 AWG stranded copper crossover cable; data-transfer software and any console system-link adapters must be obtained separately.
