Coupling ethernet cord and crossover path cord
i have a really long ethernet cable(for accessing net) and a very short crossover patch cord(for file sharing between pcs). the thing is the patch cord is too small for convenience and i was wondering if i could join the two cords using a RJ45 coupler.

I'm trying to understand the question,it's a bit ambiguous, but if i'm correct it sounds like your wanting to connect your crossover to your straight through the coupler...it wont work-no way..sorry.
