14ft (4.25m) Cat6 Snagless Unshielded UTP Network Crossover Patch Cable - Red
14ft Red Cat6 crossover patch cable with snagless UTP connectors for peer-to-peer networking
The C2G CG27864 is a 14ft (4.3m) Cat6 network crossover patch cable designed to facilitate direct peer-to-peer connections between two computers. By utilizing a crossed pin configuration, this cable allows two devices to share files and data without the requirement of a hub or switch. It is also suitable for connecting network switches or hubs that lack an uplink port to other network hardware. This unshielded twisted pair (UTP) cable is constructed with 24 AWG stranded copper conductors and features a snagless design to protect the RJ-45 clips from damage during installation and removal. The molded PVC jacket and hood material help minimize Near-End Crosstalk (NEXT) levels and reduce impedance and structural return loss (SRL). This cable supports Gigabit Ethernet speeds and is fully tested to meet all TIA/EIA Cat6 standards, providing a reliable connection for high-speed data transmission in professional environments.
