InLine Crossover PC to PC Direct Connect Cable S/FTP Cat.6 black 10m

The InLine 73600X is a 10 m S/FTP Cat.6 crossover cable with RJ-45 connectors on both ends, designed for direct PC-to-PC LAN connections without a switch. The cable’s S/FTP shielding reduces electromagnetic interference to support stable, high-speed data transfer. Its black jacket and standard Cat.6 construction make it suitable for office and home network setups requiring a direct link between two devices.

Advantages

The crossover wiring enables direct connection between two computers without a network switch or hub. S/FTP shielding around the twisted pairs and an overall foil shield improve resistance to crosstalk and external interference. Cat.6 specification supports higher bandwidth and improved signal integrity compared with earlier categories. RJ-45 connectors provide widespread compatibility with Ethernet ports on PCs and network equipment.

Suitable for

• Direct PC-to-PC LAN connections
• Temporary network links for configuration or data transfer
• Small office and home network setups requiring a direct cable between devices

How to use

Connect one RJ-45 connector to the Ethernet port of the first computer and the other RJ-45 connector to the second computer. Ensure both network interfaces are enabled and configured (e.g., set IP addresses or enable DHCP) so the two devices can communicate. No switch or hub is required; the crossover wiring facilitates direct peer-to-peer link.

Recommendations

For reliable performance, avoid excessive bending and keep the cable clear of strong electromagnetic sources. If the connection is intended for long-term use in a larger network, consider using standard straight-through Cat.6 cabling with a switch for easier management and expanded connectivity.
