Hey, all--
I know this is a picky thing, but the pinouts-to-colors you've
described (to my knowledge) aren't what I've seen to be the
"standard". Generally, I've seen a straight-through as:
1 white/orange
2 orange
3 white/green
4 blue
5 white/blue
6 green
7 white/brown
8 brown
The actual pinouts you've described are completely accurate, but
(being picky) most people I've met from networking companies attempt to
keep this color scheme just to *attempt* some sort of standard.
Then, the cross-over cable (these are only for Ethernet, of
course, as token ring, FDDI, T1, ATM, etc. cross-overs utilize different
wires for transmit and receive) has one end which is the same as above,
while the other end has the scheme you mentioned:
1 white/green
2 green
3 white/orange
4 blue
5 white/blue
6 orange
7 white/brown
8 brown
Just thought I'd clarify the correct color scheming. Any problems
or disagreements, feel free to fire away. ;-)
