UTP Cable Wiring
10BASE-T unshielded twisted-pair cables can be wired as "Straight-Through"
or, in some cases, "Crossover" depending on the application. For workstations
connected to a hub, use "Straight-Through' wiring illustrated in Table B-2. In
some instances, you may want to use "Crossover" wiring illustrated below in
Table B-3.
