  2. Crossover cable - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crossover_cable

    Straight-through cables are used for most applications, but crossover cables are required in others. In a straight-through cable, pins on one end correspond exactly to the corresponding pins on the other end (pin 1 to pin 1, pin 2 to pin 2, etc.). Using the same wiring scheme at each end yields a straight-through cable (a given color wire ...

  3. Ethernet crossover cable - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ethernet_crossover_cable

    A standard straight-through cable is used for this purpose where each pin of the connector on one end is connected to the corresponding pin on the other connector. One terminal may be connected directly to another without the use of a switch or hub, but in that case, the crossover must be done in the cabling.

  4. ANSI/TIA-568 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ANSI/TIA-568

    A cable terminated according to T568A on one end and T568B on the other is a crossover cable when used with the earlier twisted-pair Ethernet standards that use only two of the pairs because the pairs used happen to be pairs 2 and 3, the same pairs on which T568A and T568B differ. Crossover cables are occasionally needed for 10BASE-T and ...

  5. Medium-dependent interface - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Medium-dependent_interface

    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.

  6. Ethernet over twisted pair - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ethernet_over_twisted_pair

    Most Ethernet cables are wired straight-through (pin 1 to pin 1, pin 2 to pin 2, and so on). In some instances, the crossover form (receive to transmit and transmit to receive) may still be required. A cable for Ethernet may be wired to either the T568A or T568B termination standard at both ends of the cable. Since these standards differ only ...

  7. Modular connector - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Modular_connector

    The cable between the computer and the keyboard is a coiled cord with an appearance very similar to a telephone handset cable. [11] The connector on the Amiga 1000 uses crossover wiring, similar to a telephone handset. The connector wiring on the Apple computers, however, requires a polarized straight-through pinout.

  8. Networking cable - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Networking_cable

    An Ethernet crossover cable is a type of twisted pair Ethernet cable used to connect computing devices together directly that would normally be connected via a network switch, Ethernet hub or router, such as directly connecting two personal computers via their network adapters.
