Rx/Tx Crossover Cable

If you want a direct RJ45 (10/100BaseT) connection from a single computer to a printer, use a mini-hub and two network cables. We do not recommend using an Rx/Tx crossover cable to defeat the need for a hub because it is a custom cable that may not be available from a local dealer or distributor. A crossover cable that is not clearly labeled can also cause problems if mixed with standard RJ45 network cables.

If needed, you can build an Rx/Tx Crossover cable by using a standard RJ45 cable and swapping the Transmit (1, 2) and Receive (3, 6) signal pairs at one end.

IMPORTANT: You must use the proper RJ45 connector/cable tools;

otherwise, the cable may be unreliable.

Clearly label a custom cable so you do not confuse it with standard RJ45 cables.
