InLine Crossover Adapter RJ45 Plug to Socket 69994K

The InLine Crossover Adapter RJ45 male to female 69994K converts a standard patch cable into a crossover patch cable, enabling direct connection between network devices without requiring a switch or hub. It has RJ-45 connectors on both ends and comes in a durable red housing suitable for typical networking environments.

Advantages

This adapter provides a quick and compact solution for creating a crossover connection from an existing patch cable. Its RJ-45 male-to-female configuration allows inline use without re-terminating cables. The red colour makes it easy to identify in patching setups, and the solid construction supports reliable data transmission for common networking tasks.

Suitable for

• Connecting two computers directly
• Linking a router to a switch or hub when a crossover connection is required

How to use
