	Ethernet crossover cable - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Ethernet crossover cable is a type of network cable used to connect computing devices together directly where they would normally be connected via a network switcher, hub or router.
		A crossover cable must also be used to connect two internally crossed devices (e.g., two hubs) as the internal crossovers cancel each other out.
		A 56K DDS cable uses T568B pairs 2 and 4, so a crossover cable for these devices swaps those pairs (pins 1, 2, 7, and 8 are connected to 7, 8, 1, and 2 respectively).

		A "crossover" cable is used when connecting two ports that are set to the same MDI-X mode, or (in this case) the same MDI mode.
		Regardless of what cable type you choose, always double check that the cable rating, which is usually stated clearly on the jacket of the cable.

		This cable can be used to connect two computers together without a hub, or to connect two hubs together (without using an uplink port).
		If you're connecting two hubs together and one of them has an uplink port, use a straight cable (rather than the crossover) to connect the uplink port of one hub to one of the (non-uplink) ports of the other hub.
		A straight cable (one that connects pin 1 to pin 1, pin 2 to pin 2, etc.) can be used to connect an MDI port (a computer) to and MDI-X port (a normal port on a hub).
