ETHERNET CABLING

This diagram shows the pinout for standard unshielded twisted-pair (UTP) network cable. Both ends of the cable are wired identically.

RJ-45 pinout for standard Ethernet patch cable (both ends identical)

A crossover cable has the RX and TX wire pairs switched around at one end. There are only two likely situations that would require a crossover cable: to connect a single system controller computer directly to a single CM16a device; and to cascade hubs that don’t have uplink ports.
