Monoprice 41455 Network Cable - Patch UTP Category 5e 5 ft Category 5e for Network Device First End: 1 x RJ 45 Network Male Second End: 1 x RJ 45 Network Male Patch Cable Unshielded Twisted Pair (UTP) 24 AWG Snagless Red

An Ethernet Crossover cable is used to connect two PCs directly together, without using a hub or switch in between. Monoprice™ Cat5e fixed length network cables are the perfect combination of value and performance. Each cable is made of 24AWG stranded pure copper conductor pairs with 50µm gold plated contacts (short body). Most budget cables skimp with only 10µm. Each cable features color matched, snagless, strain relief boots.

Features:

• Crossover cable connects two PCs directly together, without using a hub or switch in between
• Unshielded Twisted Pair (UTP) Category 5e Ethernet Crossover cable
• 24AWG stranded, pure bare copper conductors
• 550MHz bandwidth
• Snagless cable boot protects the plug retaining clip
• 50µm gold plated contacts

Monoprice™ Ethernet cables are made of 100% pure bare copper wire, as opposed to copper clad aluminum (CCA) wire, and are therefore fully compliant with UL® Code 444 and National Electrical Code® TIA-568-C.2 fire and safety standards, which require pure bare copper wire in communications cables.
