I think they're suggesting that you make a short cross-over male to female cable (instead of the standard male to male patch cable).
The idea being that you could still use your standard patch cables and where a cross-over cable was required and simply connect the short cross-over to one end. Does this clear it up for you or are you more confused? ~~~~~~~~~~ R.

A plug on one side and a jack on the other? I am probably missing something simple but nothing rings a bell!!! Of course, I am a girl from Thailand and maybe my "slang" English is not up to par.
