Standard Ethernet cables are available commercially in different lengths. The standard cable is wired pin for pin (straight through), meaning that pin 1 of the connector at one cable end is wired to pin 1 of the connector at the opposite end. This type of cable is used to connect Quadra directly to the network, typically using an Ethernet hub or switch. To connect directly from a PC to the Quadra, a crossover cable must be used (see the following section for details).

To connect directly from a PC or laptop to Quadra without connecting to the network, an Ethernet “crossover” cable must be used. Crossover cables are available commercially. In a crossover cable, one end of the cable is wired using the pin assignments shown in Table C-5. At the other end, the TX and RX connections are exchanged (crossed over).

Ethernet uses balanced differential signals on twisted pairs of conductors. Standard pairs are shown in Table C-5. For each pair, one wire has a solid color. The other wire is white with a colored stripe matching the first wire’s color (e.g., Orange and White/Orange).
