I wanted to get rid of the switch which was using power and overkill for one device. I replaced the entire switch with this crossover adapter and it worked perfectly. I highly recommend. ## Features - Crossover adapter allows network equipment to communicate with each other directly by connecting a Cat5 or Cat6 cable - Connect two workstations together to transfer files or share a printer; Connect a patch cable in the desired length to this adapter instead of using a long or short crossover cable - Cost-effective 2-Pack adapter converts a standard network patch cable to a crossover cable - Superior construction includes RJ45 connectors with gold-plated contacts in a sturdy housing; Raging red color makes identification easy in a crowded toolkit or desk drawer - Crossover wiring reverses the transmit TX pair, pins 1 and 2, and the receive RX pins 3 and 6, to allow two computers to communicate (see the wiring diagram above); Both connected devices may require network configuration in order to communicate ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B01I0E5EXU | | Best Sellers Rank | 18,599 in Computers & Accessories ( See Top 100 in Computers & Accessories ) 21 in Gender Changers | | Brand | Cable Matters | | Brand Name | Cable Matters | | Colour | red | | Compatible Devices | PC, Laptop | | Compatible devices | PC, Laptop | | Connector Type | RJ45 | | Connector type | RJ45 | | Country of Origin | China | | Current Rating | 1 Amps | | Customer Reviews | 4.5 out of 5 stars 1,075 Reviews | | Item Dimensions | 5.3 x 2 x 2 centimetres | | Item Weight | 0.04 Pounds | | Item dimensions L x W x H | 5.3 x 2 x 2 centimetres | | Manufacturer | Cable Matters | | Model Number | 160025x2-E | | Number of Items | 2 | | Number of Ports | 2 | | Package Quantity | 1 | | Power Plug Type | No Plug | | Product Finish Type | Matte | | Specific Uses For Product | PC | | Specific uses for product | PC | | UPC | 682017352831 | | Unit Count | 2.0 Count | | Warranty Type | Limited | ## Product Details - **Colour:** red - **Compatible devices:** PC, Laptop - **Connector type:** RJ45 - **Item dimensions L x W x H:** 5.3 x 2 x 2 centimetres - **Specific uses for product:** PC ## Images ![Cable Matters 2-Pack Crossover Adapter (Crossover Cable Adapter) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71RPk8JlGOL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: Do you put 1 on each end or just 1 on 1 end?** A: You install only on one end. To make a cross over cable you attach one of of these adapters to a regular straight through Ethernet cable **Q: i have a cat 5 ethernet cable going directly from my netgear router to my xbox 1 i want to play computer games through my xbox 1 do i need crossover** A: No router to computer (Xbox) needs a straight cable. A crossover is used for like devices (computer to computer/ switch to switch or hub). Hope this helps **Q: Does this work with cat7, I don't see why it wouldn't? I am just wanting to make sure before I buy.** A: Yes it works. The only difference between cat6 and cat7 is the frequency the data is transferred at! :) **Q: do i need software to make the transfer possible?** A: The answer above will allow you to transfer files. NOT programs. For that, you need PCmover by Laplink. They have versions that come with a cable, but one of these adapters, and an ethernet patch cord will do the trick. The software is available on Amazon, and the version without the cable is available for direct download from Amazon Hope this helps ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Does what it says on the tin *by A***R on 18 November 2025* If you ever need a cross over cable but can be bothered making one this little device turns any Cat5 cable into a cross over cable :-) ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fantastic Adaptor *by B***Y on 25 October 2025* I was using a Cisco switch with mdix for a single device due to it using a straight through connection which I needed converting to crossover.
