What is a Category
5E
crossover patch cable? Think of it as the footpath that
connects certain houses together on your block.
Actually, it's a cable that directly links one computer
to another on a Local Area Network (LAN). The RJ45 CAT5E UTP crossover cable with
molded strain relief is
designed to connect Hub-to-Hub or PC-to-PC. It features
RJ45 male-to-male connectors and a molded strain
relief. This cable
eliminates the need of an Ethernet HUB. To network 2
computers you will only need this Crossover cable and 2
network cards. Note: To make your own cable you need to
connect (Pin 1 to Pin 3), (Pin 2 to Pin 6), (Pin 3 to
Pin 1), (Pin 6 to Pin 2) and all other Pins are left
open!!
