10ft (3m) Cat6 Snagless Unshielded UTP Network Crossover Patch Cable - Orange
10ft Orange Cat6 crossover patch cable with snagless connectors for peer-to-peer network connections
The C2G CG27893 is a 10ft (3.1 m) Cat6 Unshielded UTP Network Crossover Patch Cable designed to facilitate direct connections between two computers for file and data sharing. By utilizing a crossed pin configuration, this cable enables peer-to-peer communication without the requirement of an intermediary hub or switch. It is also suitable for connecting network switches and hubs that lack uplink ports to other networking hardware. This orange patch cable is constructed with 24 AWG stranded copper conductors and features a PVC jacket and connector hood material. The snagless design protects the RJ-45 connector clips from damage during installation and removal, ensuring the cable remains intact even with frequent use. Engineered to meet TIA/EIA Cat6 standards, the cable is built to handle Gigabit Ethernet speeds with a bandwidth of 500 mHz. This construction helps minimize Near-End Crosstalk (NEXT), structural return loss (SRL), and impedance issues to maintain error-free transmission.
