StarTech.com Cisco Console Rollover Cable - RJ45 Ethernet - Network cable - RJ-45 (M) to RJ-45 (M) - 6 ft - molded, flat - blue (ROLLOVERMM6)

I grabbed this StarTech Cisco console rollover cable to manage some older Cisco switches and routers, and it works perfectly. It’s a straight replacement for the original blue Cisco console cable—just plug it into the RJ45 console port and into your USB-to-serial adapter or PC serial port, and you’re in business.The build quality is great for the price—flexible but sturdy jacket, molded strain reliefs on the connectors, and no cheap plastic feel. I’ve coiled and uncoiled it several times already and it hasn’t kinked or frayed. Data transmission was stable with no drops while working in PuTTY for several hours.If you’re in networking, you know these cables are essential for CLI access when everything else fails. Having a solid, reliable rollover cable like this one in your kit is a must.✅ Pros:1:1 Cisco-compatible pinout (no weird wiring issues)Durable, flexible, tangle-resistantPlug-and-play for serial console access❌ Cons:Not USB-native—you’ll still need a serial adapter if your laptop lacks a DB9 portBottom line: Exactly what you need for console access on Cisco gear—simple, durable, and works every time.

This is the style of cord you need to replace a frayed or damaged ETX cord. It works perfectly although it isn't as pretty as the original coiled cord.

it worked as advertized. Not sure what else to say.

No complaints, works great

I use this cable as a replacement declination cable for a Meade LX200 EMC telescope. It works like a charm, and costs about $15 less than what telescope stores want for them!

This items works as designed and I have not had any problems with it.

Worked perfectly and now no way for them to be confused with regular ethernet cables.

Love it, inexpensive, correctly pinned out, sold as described and pictured, 10/10 if I needed another rollover cable, I would choose this one.
