## 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

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 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. 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.
