## Long description

The Goobay CAT 5e Crossover Patch Cable (3 m) provides reliable, high-speed signal transmission for network devices.

The cable comes in a grey-green color and supports data rates up to 1000 Mbit/s.
Advantages

Robust cable sheathing increases mechanical durability and the pre-terminated RJ-45 plugs provide a precise fit for standard network ports.

Key specifications
 Brand: WENTRONIC (Goobay product line)
 Model / MPN: 68866
 EAN: 4040849688669
 Type: Crossover patch cable
 Category: CAT 5e
 Length: 3 m
 Shielding: U/UTP (unshielded overall, unshielded pairs)
 Connectors: RJ-45 with gold-plated contacts
 Data rate: up to 1000 Mbit/s
 Color: grey-green
How to use
Plug the RJ-45 connectors into the corresponding Ethernet ports of the devices you want to connect. For direct device-to-device communication, use the cable as supplied without additional configuration. Ensure both devices support the required network speeds; most modern NICs will auto-negotiate with CAT 5e cables. Avoid tight bends and excessive pulling when routing the cable to maintain performance and longevity.
Usage recommendations
For best results, route the cable away from strong electromagnetic sources (large motors, transformers) and avoid kinking. Inspect connectors before use and replace the cable if the sheath or plugs are damaged. Use CAT 5e crossover cables specifically where crossover wiring is required; otherwise, standard straight-through patch cables are generally appropriate.
