C2G 24520

Overview

The C2G 24520 is a 100-foot Cat5e crossover cable designed to connect two Ethernet devices directly without the need for a hub, switch, or router. It reverses the transmit and receive pairs inside the cable, enabling computers, servers, or network appliances to share data efficiently. Built with 24 AWG conductors and unshielded twisted pair wiring, it meets Cat5e TIA/EIA standards to ensure reliable full-speed performance over its entire length.

Key features

• Reversed wiring configuration allows direct device-to-device communication without intermediary network hardware
• Unshielded twisted pair construction reduces interference and maintains signal clarity
• Standard RJ-45 connectors without boots facilitate easy routing through tight spaces and high-density patch panels
• Durable PVC jacket protects internal wiring and keeps cable organized for long-term use
• Red jacket color simplifies cable identification in complex setups such as racks, desks, or classrooms
• Compliance with Cat5e TIA/EIA standards ensures consistent data transmission speeds and signal integrity
• Design minimizes Near-End Crosstalk to preserve clear and stable network connections

Connectivity and compatibility

This crossover cable is ideal for linking two Ethernet-enabled devices directly, such as laptops, servers, or network appliances. It works well for bridging switches that lack uplink ports or creating point-to-point connections in environments like warehouses or production floors. The cable’s standard RJ-45 connectors ensure compatibility with most Ethernet ports, while the bootless design helps when routing through tight spaces or patch panels.

Ideal uses and environments

The C2G 24520 fits well in small business networks, home offices, gaming setups, and technical environments where direct device connections are needed without additional networking hardware. Its length and durable construction make it suitable for installations across larger spaces such as classrooms, production floors, or server rooms. Users who require straightforward, plug-and-play networking will find this cable a practical and dependable choice.

We act solely as a reseller. Any product warranty is provided and administered by the manufacturer, not by our store. That means eligibility, coverage, and outcomes are determined by the manufacturer’s policy for each brand and model. Before purchasing, we recommend reviewing the warranty terms on the manufacturer’s website or in the product documentation to confirm what is covered and for how long.

If you need warranty service, please file the claim directly with the manufacturer. They may require proof of purchase, the product serial number, original packaging, photos, or basic troubleshooting. Some brands ask you to register the product or obtain a case number before shipping it for repair or replacement. We don’t submit or approve claims, but we can point you to the correct support links and contact details.

Keep your invoice and packaging in a safe place, and report any functional issues to the manufacturer as soon as they appear. If you’re unsure whether a problem is covered, the manufacturer’s support team can confirm next steps and timelines. While we cannot intervene in decisions or outcomes, we’re happy to provide purchase documentation or guidance so you can move through the warranty process smoothly.
