This cable can be used to connect two computers together without a hub, or to connect two hubs together (without using an uplink port). If you are connecting two hubs together and one of them has an uplink port, use a straight cable. Most hubs nowadays are autosensing.

The crossover cable differ from cable used for straightforward  Ethernet RJ45 connection. In order to make Crossover Ethernet cable wire one RJ-45 connector using the T-568A standard and the other RJ-45 connector using the T-568B standard.

Note 1: It´s important that each pair is kept as a pair. TX+ & TX- must be in the pair, and RX+ & RX- must together in another pair etc. (Just as the table above shows).
