Direct Device Connection

This Cat5e crossover cable links two devices with RJ45 ports directly without a switch or hub. The 10 ft yellow cable is rated for 350MHz and 1Gbps communication. Molded connectors and stranded conductors provide durability for repeated patching.

Peer-to-Peer Networking

Suited for switch-to-switch uplinks or PC-to-PC file transfers where a crossover pinout is required. Not for connections to a router, modem or standard switch port that expect a straight-through cable. Buyers needing a standard patch lead should look at a straight-through Cat5e cable.

Crossover Pinout

The crossed transmit and receive pairs are the single specification that determines whether this cable works for the intended link. Verify that both endpoints require a crossover wiring scheme before purchasing.

Questions about this item

What devices can the 10 ft yellow Cat5e crossover cable connect directly?

The crossover wiring is designed to link switch-to-switch or PC-to-PC without an intermediate hub or router.

How do I ensure the RJ45 connectors seat correctly during installation?

Push each RJ45 male plug firmly into the port until the retaining tab clicks; a partial insert is the common error that causes intermittent links.

When should I consider replacing this Cat5e crossover patch cable?

Replace it if the yellow jacket shows cuts, the molded boots crack, or the cable fails to sustain 350 MHz / 1 Gbps performance during testing.
