Question

You are making a 568b utp crossover cable that will be used to cascade two switches on an ethernet network. you have attached an rj-45 connector to one end of the cable and inserted the white with orange stripe wire into pin 1 of the connector. the orange wire has been inserted into pin 2 of the connector. which wire should be inserted into pin 1 of the rj-45 connector on the other end of the cable?

Answer 1

For a 568B crossover cable that already has wht-org and org on pins 1 and 2 of the connector at one end, the connector at the OTHER end should have wht-grn and grn on pins 1 and 2 respectively.

The wht-org and org at that end should drop to pins 3 and 6 respectively.

You're welcome, and good luck.
