RJ45 (8-pin) to RJ45 (8-pin) Cross-Over Cable Wiring
100BaseFx Ethernet Port Connection
The concept behind the SC/ST port and cable is quite straightforward.
Suppose you are connecting devices I and II. As opposed to electrical
signals, optical signals do not require a circuit in order to transmit data.
Consequently, one of the optical lines is used to transmit data from
device I to device II, and the other optical line is used transmit data
from device II to device I, for full-duplex transmission.
All you need to remember is to connect the Tx (transmit) port of device
I to the Rx (receive) port of device II, and the Rx (receive) port of
device I to the Tx (transmit) port of device II. If you are making your
own cable, we suggest labeling the two sides of the same line with the
same letter (A-to-A and B-to-B, as shown by the following illustration,
or A1-to-A2 and B1-to-B2).
