The order previously stated below does a good job for reducing noise if you use this cable for Telephone or Ethernet. With that pin-out the T/R pin are twisted together and the A1/A2 pins are twisted together so you get a better Common Mode Noise Rejection which makes it suitable for Telco or Network (<= 100Mb/s). But I do believe the TIA568A (see 568B for cross over) standard colors are: 1 White Green (Ether TX+ 1) 2 Green (Ether TX- 2) 3 White Orange (RX+ 3 / Telco A1) 4 Blue (Telco TIP) 5 White Blue (Telco Ring) 6 Orange (Ether- 6 / Telco A2) 7 White Borwn 8 Borwn -- Chris On Fri, 2003-10-03 at 13:38, Jason Staudenmayer wrote: > I think order does matter or at least the pairs match.
