Twisted-Pair Cable

The cable used to connect the Ethernet card to a host (generally

a Hub or Switch) is called a straight-through Twisted Pair Ethernet

(TPE). The end connectors are called RJ-45 connectors, which are

not compatible with RJ-11 telephone connectors. If connecting two

computers together without a hub in between, a crossover LAN

cable is required (Fast-Ethernet model). (Gigabit models support

auto-crossover so a crossover LAN cable is optional.)

Example of the Notebook PC connected to a Network Hub or Switch

for use with the built-in Ethernet controller.
