14ft (4.25m) Cat6 Snagless Unshielded UTP Network Crossover Patch Cable - Gray
14ft Cat6 crossover patch cable, 500 mHz bandwidth, featuring snagless RJ-45 connectors for peer-to-peer networking
The C2G CG27824 is a 14ft (4.3 m) Cat6 network crossover patch cable designed for peer-to-peer connections between two computers. By utilizing a crossed pin configuration, this cable allows devices to share files or data directly without the need for an intermediate hub or switch. It is also an effective solution for connecting network switches or hubs that lack an uplink port. This unshielded (UTP) cable is constructed with 24 AWG stranded copper conductors and a PVC jacket, ensuring high-quality signal transmission for Gigabit Ethernet speeds. The design focuses on minimizing Near-End Crosstalk (NEXT) through a shortened body plug, which also helps reduce impedance and structural return loss (SRL). For ease of installation, the snagless connector design protects the clips during repeated plugging and unplugging, preventing damage while allowing for easy removal. This gray cable operates within a temperature range of -4°F to 176°F (-20°C to 80°C) and supports a bandwidth of 500 mHz.
