Std. or straight-through Ethernet cable, by 568b specs, is Or/Wh, Or, Gr/Wh, Bl, Bl/Wh, Gr, Br/Wh,Br. Both ends.
Crossover is standard on one end, but Gr/Wh, Gr, Or/Wh, Bl, Bl/Wh, Or, Br/Wh, Br. You are crossing your transmit pair with your receive pair. Some sources would have you cross the other two pairs, as well, but it's not necessary.
Or = Orange, Wh = White, Bl = Blue, Gr = Green, Br = Brown.

How can one identify a cross-over cable?
Match up the two ends of the cable. Look closely at the color coding of the pins at both RJ-45 connectors. If the same colors are used in the same pin positions then the cable is a straight-through cable. If they are reversed at both ends then it is a cross-over cable.Sometimes the cable will be marked that way on the outside covering of the cable. Look for the words "cross-over cable".
Does it matter if the cable wires cross over?
No, it does not matter if the cable wires cross over. It should not cause any problems if they cross over. However, there are several products that allow them to cross over to add on benefits.
What kind of cable is needed to connect a switch to a switch?
cross over cable
What type of monitor cable was connected to the laptop?
Ethernet cross-over cable
Can a cross over cable be used to connect two unlike network devices such as a PC and a hub?
In general, no, you would not use a cross-over cable to connect a hub/switch/router to a PC. This is because the device itself has cross-over circuitry built into it, and if you used a cross-over cable you would be reversing that process. The net effect is that the transmit signal would connect to another transmit signal, when it should be connected to a receive signal.
What is the different between cross over and normal patch cable?
In a normal patch cable the wires are the same on both ends. In a cross over cable the transmit and receive pairs are reversed so that the wire in position 1 goes to 3, and 2 goes to 6.
What is the purpose of a crossover RJ45 cable?
You can connect 2 PC`s without the use of a switch with a cross-over cable.
What type of cable do you use for network of two computers?
you can use any of the following cables: 1) Cross Over cable 2) LAN cable 3) Ethernet cable
How do you know that your crossover cable is good?
You can use an ohmmeter to test the continuity of all wires. Alternately, you can put it in place of a known working cross-over cable and see if the network connection still functions. Remember that many modern network devices detect whether the cable is straight or cross-over, so perhaps you don't even need a cross-over.
How do people from the village cross the braldu river?
They slide themselves over a metal cable
What are benefits of crossover cable over other UTP cables?
what is use cross overcable
Which cable connects directly to two PC's?
A cross-over cable directly connects two PC's without the need for a device such as a switch. The cross-over cable works by having one end's pins in a standard order and the other end swaps the transmit and receive wires. RJ-45 UTP CABLE IS ACTUALLY USED.
