InLine crossover PC till PC patchkabel SF/UTP Cat.5e grå 1 m

The InLine Crossover Patch Cable Cat.5e, 1 m in grey, is a twisted SF/UTP network cable with RJ-45 connectors on both ends. It is designed for direct device-to-device connections where a crossover wiring is required, for example linking two computers or connecting two hubs/switches without an uplink port. The cable meets Cat5e specifications to support standard Ethernet data rates while SF/UTP shielding reduces electromagnetic interference.

Advantages

This 1 m Cat.5e crossover cable provides reliable direct networking between devices with minimal signal distortion due to SF/UTP shielding. The RJ-45 connectors ensure easy, tool-free installation and the grey jacket identifies the cable in mixed-cable environments. Its crossover wiring eliminates the need for a crossover adapter when linking similar network devices.

Suitable for

• Directly connecting two PCs
• Linking two hubs or switches without dedicated uplink ports
• Short-distance device-to-device Ethernet connections

How to use

Plug each RJ-45 connector into the network ports of the two devices to be linked, ensuring firm seating of the plugs. Use this crossover cable when connecting similar devices (PC-to-PC or switch-to-switch) where straight-through cabling would not allow direct communication. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends or crushing, and verify link/activity LEDs on the devices to confirm a successful connection.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, avoid running the cable parallel to high-voltage power lines and maintain gentle bends with a radius greater than the cable diameter. Replace the cable if connectors or the jacket are visibly damaged.
