The C2G 7FT CAT6 SNAGLESS CROSSOVER UTP-RED cable, part number 27862, is designed for direct device-to-device network connections without the need for an intervening hub or switch. This 7-foot, unshielded twisted pair (UTP) cable utilizes a crossover wiring configuration, making it suitable for connecting two computers directly, or for linking network devices of the same type, such as two switches or two routers, where a standard straight-through cable would not function. The snagless design helps protect the RJ-45 connector clips from damage during installation and removal in crowded cable environments. This red CAT6 cable supports Gigabit Ethernet applications, providing a reliable solution for specific peer-to-peer networking requirements in business and IT settings, reducing the need for additional networking hardware in certain configurations.
A crossover cable is primarily used to connect two devices of the same type directly, such as two computers, two switches, or two routers, without requiring a hub or switch in between. This differs from straight-through cables, which connect devices of different types.
The 'snagless' feature indicates that the cable's RJ-45 connector includes a boot that protects the locking tab from being broken or bent during installation or removal. This helps prevent damage when routing cables through tight spaces.
This is a CAT6 Ethernet cable. CAT6 cables are designed to support Gigabit Ethernet (1000BASE-T) and are backward compatible with CAT5 and CAT5e standards, offering improved performance over older categories.
This product includes one 7-foot C2G CAT6 snagless crossover UTP Ethernet cable in red, as described by its title and part number 27862.
