SKU CH-13WE-RXAX1

Two-pack of straight RJ45 crossover adapters with gold-plated contacts and PVC shielding for extending Ethernet connections

  • Product typeAccessories
  • Extends Ethernet reach to routers and streaming devices with RJ45 male-to-female crossover design
  • Gold-plated contacts and metal shielding ensure stable anti-interference signal transmission
  • PVC all-inclusive housing protects internal circuitry for durable, non-corrosive performance
  • Crossover pinout meets EIA/TIA 586A draft 11 for direct same-device connections
  • Rated for 10007 insertion cycles to preserve native network ports from wear

RJ45 Crossover Adapter 2-Pack

This pack contains two straight RJ45 male-to-female adapters wired for Ethernet crossover connections. Pins 1 and 3 are crossed with pins 2 and 6 to meet draft 11 of the EIA/TIA 586A specification. Gold-plated contacts and a metal shielding layer provide stable anti-interference performance. The PVC all-inclusive design protects the internal circuit module for durable use.

Extends ports and enables direct peer links

Ideal for extending an existing Ethernet run to a router, switch, server, NAS, printer or console while protecting the device's native port from wear caused by frequent cable changes. It also allows direct peer-to-peer links between two computers, two routers or similar same-type devices without a separate crossover cable. Both connected devices may require network configuration to communicate. Not suited for buyers who need a standard straight-through coupler or a longer cable run instead of an adapter.

Pins 1/3 and 2/6 crossover wiring

The decisive specification is the crossover pinout: pins 1 and 3 crossed over, pins 2 and 6 crossed over, compliant with draft 11 of the EIA/TIA 586A category. This wiring enables direct device-to-device connections where auto-sensing crossover is absent. Verify that your application requires this specific crossover pinout before purchase.

Questions about this item

What EIA/TIA draft does the crossover wiring follow?

The adapter meets draft 11 of the EIA/TIA 586A category and specification.

What connectors must the cable or device have to fit this adapter?

Both ends use RJ45 8P8C connectors; one male and one female.

How do you install the adapter, and what step is often missed?

Plug the male end into the device port and the female end into the patch cable; both connected devices may still require network configuration to communicate.
