I'm just seting up the hub end. But what you're saying is I might have some trial and error.

A crossover cable will switch two of the wires from one end to the other. A crossover cable would be used for linking two hubs when one did not have a port specific for uplinking. A crossover cable could also be used to connect two computers without networking equipment between them (aside from the ethernet cards). Need the actually standard colors et al?
