Measuring 3 feet (0.9 meters) in length, it enables quick peer-to-peer communication by swapping the transmit and receive pairs inside each RJ45 plug. This makes it ideal for tasks like cloning hard drives, sharing large files, or staging network hardware in environments such as offices, classrooms, labs, or home workshops.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eConstructed with 24 AWG stranded copper in bonded pairs, the cable maintains consistent twist spacing to control impedance and reduce return loss. Its unshielded twisted pair (UTP) design keeps the cable flexible and easy to route through tight spaces. The bright orange PVC jacket enhances visibility, helping you quickly identify and trace the cable among others.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch6\u003eKey features\u003c\/h6\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eDirect device connection without extra networking hardware, simplifying setup and reducing clutter\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eBonded twisted pairs maintain signal integrity for reliable data transfer at Cat5e speeds\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eUnshielded design offers flexibility for routing in confined or crowded spaces\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eNon-booted RJ45 connectors fit easily into tight panels or equipment ports without snagging\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eOrange PVC jacket provides high visibility for quick cable identification and troubleshooting\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eMeets Cat5e TIA\/EIA standards to ensure consistent performance and compatibility\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eWell suited for file transfers, network diagnostics, device imaging, and temporary network setups\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003ch6\u003eKey specs\u003c\/h6\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eCable length: 3 ft (0.9 m)\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eCable type: Cat5e crossover patch cable\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eConductor: 24 AWG stranded copper\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eCable design: Unshielded twisted pair (UTP) with bonded pairs\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eConnector type: Non-booted RJ45 plugs\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eJacket material: Orange PVC\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eStandards compliance: Cat5e TIA\/EIA performance specifications\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003ch6\u003eConnectivity and compatibility\u003c\/h6\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis crossover cable is designed to link two Ethernet-enabled devices directly, such as computers, switches, or routers, without requiring intermediary network hardware. Its crossed wiring layout swaps transmit and receive pairs, enabling immediate peer-to-peer communication. The non-booted RJ45 connectors fit standard Ethernet ports, including those in crowded patch panels or network equipment.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eBecause it meets Cat5e standards, the cable supports data rates up to 1 Gbps, making it compatible with most modern Ethernet devices that use Cat5e or better cabling.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch6\u003eIdeal uses and environments\u003c\/h6\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe C2G 24494 is a practical choice for IT professionals and technicians who need a reliable, short-length cable for direct device connections. It works well for quick file transfers, network testing, device imaging, and temporary setups where adding a switch or hub is impractical. Its flexibility and bright color make it easy to manage in busy workspaces such as service counters, labs, or home offices.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis cable fits well in scenarios where space is limited and cable routing requires a slim, flexible solution that still delivers consistent Cat5e performance.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"C2G","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50075703214399,"sku":"NFD-BLEZ-VW6","price":19.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0888\/0609\/7215\/files\/0803131_nfd-blez-vw6.webp?v=1740945845","url":"https:\/\/www.beingshipped.com\/products\/nfd-blez-vw6","provider":"Being Shipped","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
