  • Connector BRJ45 (MALE)
  • Length10 ft.
  • ColorRed
  • Connect switch-to-switch or PC-to-PC directly with cross-over wiring
  • 10 ft red Cat5e cable rated for 350 MHz bandwidth
  • Molded green connectors and cross-over label prevent accidental misuse
  • Stranded PVC 4-pair UTP construction supports 1 Gbps data rates
  • Lifetime warranty and RoHS compliance confirm long-term reliability

Direct device links

This 10 ft Cat5e cross-over patch cable connects two network devices directly without a switch or router. Red PVC jacket and green moulded RJ45 male ends make it easy to identify in a rack or desk setup. Rated for 350 MHz bandwidth and 1 Gbps communication, it suits 10 and 100 base-t networks.

Not for standard patching

Builders who need a straight-through cable for connecting a PC to a switch, router or wall jack should choose a regular patch cable instead. The cross-over wiring will not work for those typical uplinks. It also does not serve applications that require Cat6 or higher category performance.

Handles 100 Mbps links

The cable comfortably carries Fast Ethernet traffic at 100 Mbps with headroom provided by the 350 MHz rating. It runs out of specification for certified Gigabit Ethernet over 100 m, but the 10 ft length keeps signal loss negligible for direct device-to-device runs.

Questions about this item

What devices must already have RJ45 ports to use this 10 ft Cat5e crossover cable?

You need two devices with RJ45 network ports — such as two switches, two PCs, or two Macs — because both ends of this cable are RJ45 male connectors wired for direct device-to-device links.

Will this 350 MHz Cat5e crossover cable work with older 10/100 base-t network cards I still have?

Yes, the cable is rated for 350 MHz and 1 Gbps but remains fully compatible with 10 and 100 base-t equipment, so your older NICs will connect at their maximum supported speed.

How can I confirm the cable is functioning as a crossover link after I plug it in?

Check that the link LEDs on both ports light up and that the operating system reports a 100 Mbps or 1 Gbps full-duplex connection; the green-moulded connectors and “Cross Over” label also visually identify the wiring.
