C2G 14ft Cat5e Unshielded Network Crossover Patch Cable (Red)

The C2G 26706 is a 14-foot Cat5e crossover patch cable that lets two Ethernet devices talk to each other directly without an intervening switch or hub. By crossing the transmit and receive pairs inside the cable, it creates an instant peer-to-peer link that is ideal when you need to move large files between computers, clone hard drives, or run quick network tests in a lab or field environment.

Engineered to meet strict Cat5e TIA/EIA specifications, the cable uses 24 AWG stranded copper conductors arranged in bonded pairs. This construction maintains consistent twist spacing, which helps control near-end crosstalk and keeps data integrity high even in noisy office or workshop spaces. The unshielded twisted pair design delivers the flexibility you want for easy routing, while the durable PVC jacket protects the conductors from everyday wear and bends.

Both ends terminate in RJ-45 male plugs that seat firmly in standard networking ports found on computers, routers, switches, gaming consoles, and test equipment. The bright red jacket makes the cable easy to spot in crowded racks or on a busy desk, so you can trace connections at a glance and reduce downtime during troubleshooting.

Whether you are a home user who wants a fast way to migrate data to a new laptop, an IT technician configuring switches on a workbench, or a gamer setting up a head-to-head session without internet latency, this crossover cable delivers dependable performance in a plug-and-play package.
