Direct PC Link Cable

This Cat5e crossover patch cable connects two computers directly without a hub or switch. The 25 ft red cable uses 24AWG stranded pure bare copper conductors for reliable data transfer. It is built to 550MHz bandwidth and meets UL 444 and TIA-568C.2 fire safety standards.

Simple Plug And Play

Installation only requires inserting the snagless RJ45 connectors into each PC Ethernet port. The strain relief boots protect the retaining clips from breaking during routing. No driver setup or network hardware configuration is needed for the direct link.

Crossover Wiring Required

This cable uses crossover pinout so it only works for direct PC to PC connections. It will not function for standard connections to a router, switch or modem. Buyers needing a regular patch cable for network infrastructure should choose a straight wired alternative.
