COMNEN’s Cat5e UTP crossover cable is a specialized networking cable designed for connecting two similar devices directly to each other, typically used in situations where a traditional Ethernet switch or hub is not present. Unlike regular Ethernet cables (which use a straight-through configuration), a Cat5e UTP crossover cable features a unique wiring arrangement that swaps the transmit and receive wires, allowing data to flow directly between the connected devices without the need for an intermediary device.
This type of cable is often employed for tasks like connecting two computers or networking devices directly for file sharing, data transfer, or peer-to-peer communication. It is known as “Cat5e” because it adheres to the Cat5e (Category 5e) standard, providing reliable data transmission speeds of up to 1,000 Mbps (1 Gbps) over short distances. Crossover cables are marked with a label or color coding to distinguish them from regular Ethernet cables, which helps users ensure they’re using the correct cable for their specific networking needs.
Compliant with RoHS, REACH and CE, come with COMNEN lifetime long warranty. OEM and ODM services are available.
