    With fiber-optic cables, data can be transmitted over much greater distances compared to copper-based Ethernet cable. [2] Ethernet over fiber-optic cable has been a technology with specifications dating back to the mid 1980s (10BASE-F). Initially, fiber-optic cables were primarily used to connect repeaters when the distance between them ...

    These are referred to as MDI and MDI-X (medium-dependent interface crossover). When connecting an MDI port to an MDI-X port, a straight-through cable is used, while to connect two MDI ports or two MDI-X ports, a crossover cable must be used. Conventionally, MDI is used on end devices and routers while MDI-X is used on hubs and switches.
