Almost all adapters made in the past 5 years or so will support
Auto-MDIX (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Medium-dependent_interface)
GB Ethernet does not need Auto-MDIX except when communicating with
a 10MB or 100MB adapter.

Take a standard Ethernet cable and plug the two systems together.
If the lights on both adapters turn on, you do not need a
crossover cable.
