Review: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Handy Little Networking Tool - These Cable Matters crossover adapters are perfect for quickly converting a standard Ethernet cable into a crossover cable. I used them to directly connect two devices without a switch, and they worked flawlessly—no configuration headaches, just plug and play. They feel well-made with solid connectors and no loose fit. Having a 2-pack is convenient so I can keep one in my bag and one in my toolbox. ✅ Pros: Instantly converts a straight-through cable to crossover No loss in speed—gigabit works fine Compact, durable, and affordable ❌ Cons: Easy to misplace since they’re small Bottom line: A simple, reliable solution for direct device-to-device networking.
Review: Easy mode crossover! - Easy to use. I needed something I could keep in my kit for when I go into blind repairs. These are great. They work exactly as they should and are compact making it easy to convert in a snap.

## Features

- 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

## 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
