InLine Crossover PC to PC Direct Connect Cable S/FTP Cat.6 black 1.5m

The InLine 73612X is a 1.5 m Cat6 S/FTP crossover patch cable designed for direct PC-to-PC LAN connections without a switch. It features RJ-45 connectors on both ends and a black outer jacket, providing a compact and reliable link between two network devices with Cat6 performance and shielded twisted-pair construction.

Advantages

The S/FTP shielding reduces electromagnetic interference and crosstalk for more stable data transfer. Cat6 specification supports higher bandwidth and improved signal integrity compared with earlier categories. RJ-45 connectors ensure compatibility with standard Ethernet ports and the 1.5 m length is convenient for close-range direct connections.

Suitable for

• Direct PC-to-PC Ethernet connection without a network switch
• Connecting two network devices for file transfer, gaming, or diagnostics
• Temporary or permanent local area network links in small workspace setups
