FIGURE QS–1: Pin Layout for a RJ45 Ethernet Straight-through Cable

The cable itself consists of four pairs of wires terminated in RJ45 connectors. The maximum permitted cable length is 100 meters. The cable pin connections can be one of two configurations: the first is called a "straight-through" cable and the second is called either a "crossover" or "patch" cable.

Given that the UR-2S/2T supports autonegotiate, a straight-through or crossover cable may be used to connect or establish a point-to-point Ethernet LAN between two Ethernet devices, as shown here.
