Product description

2-Pack DIY or IT Pro Tool

The Cable Matters Crossover Adapter directly connects computing devices of the same type with a standard patch cable. It allows older computers without an auto-sensing crossover function in the RJ45 port to have a peer to peer connection. Carry this portable adapter in your toolkit instead of a heavier crossover cable.

Cost-Effective Solution

Connect this Cat 6 Crossover Adapter to any Cat 5e or Cat 6 patch cable instead of an expensive crossover cable. The convenient 2-Pack provides a spare adapter to keep in your laptop sleeve or IT toolkit.

Important Notes

– The adapter is not designed for RJ11 phone connections

– Auto-sensing Gigabit Auto MDIX ports may not require a crossover adapter

– Connected PC, switch, hub or router requires some network configuration
