3ft (0.9m) Cat6 Snagless Unshielded UTP Network Crossover Patch Cable - Red
Red Cat6 crossover patch cable, 3 ft (0.9 m) length, featuring snagless RJ-45 connectors and UTP construction
The CG27861 is a 3 ft (0.9 m) Cat6 unshielded UTP crossover patch cable in red. This cable is specifically configured with crossed pins to facilitate peer-to-peer connections between two computers, allowing them to share files and data directly without the requirement of a hub or switch. It is also suitable for connecting network switches or hubs that lack uplink ports to other networking hardware. This Category 6 cable is designed to reduce impedance and structural return loss (SRL) to ensure error-free data transmission, while its shortened body plug design helps minimize Near-End Crosstalk (NEXT) levels. Each cable is fully tested and meets TIA/EIA Cat6 standards, supporting Gigabit Ethernet speeds. The red, snagless design includes a PVC connector hood to protect the clips during frequent insertion and removal, providing strain relief against excessive pulling during installation and use.
