I Need Quick System Link Help!!

[J Dub]

Ok, I'm going to be playing Halo over a system link. There are going to be 2 Xboxes, but what cable do I need to connect the two together?

My cable reads: BELKIN COMPONENTS CATEGORY 5e PATCH CABLE #R7J304 VERIFIED (UL) CAT 5e 4PR 24AWG TYPE CM OR MP E129760

Now is this the right cable? Or will I need a hub? Ah so confused!

Thanks for the help!

You need a crossover cable or the Official MS system link cable....

As posted you need either a crossover cable OR 2 patch cables and a hub

Thanks for the help. I took my router and a couple patch cables and everything worked perfectly. It was so fun too. LAN parties 0wn.
