Editorial Reviews :
The Xbox link cable connects two consoles together to enable multi-Xbox head-to-head gameplay. Note that not all games have system-link support.
Buyer Reviews :
I'm seeing a lot of confusion over whether you need the official MicroSoft licensed nifty green System Link Cable or just any old ethernet cable. Okay, here's the deal. If you just want to unite two Xboxes (and 2 TV's) under Multiplayer/System Link Play, then you link system to system with an ethernet CROSSOVER cable. This is different from a regular Cat 5 cable, because it takes Transmit pins 1&2 and CROSSES them OVER to Receive pins 3&6. It does this in both directions, so that your two Xboxes can transmit/receive to each other. A regular Cat 5 ethernet cable will not work because it connects transmitŒòꞲŞÜ and receive‚îẊ. (mouth to mouth & ear to ear)
If you have a hub, then you CAN use regular Category 5 ethernet cables from Xbox to hub, Xbox to hub, etc., up to four Xboxes each linked into a hub. You don't need the hub to be connected to a computer or a DSL/cable modem or anything. Just two to four Xboxes that all meet at the ethernet hub. That's it. (of course you need a separate TV set or RGB monitor for each Xbox) Up to sixteen players can play Halo under Multiplayer/System Link Play. What a difference it makes when people can't watch your screen split and see you sneaking up on them. It just rocks out loud.
