Straight Through Cable
A RJ-45 straight through cable is used to connect a computer to a network device. For instance, you must use
straight through cables to connect a computer to a network hub, switch, and router.
The RJ-45 cable uses two pairs of wires: one pair for transmission and the second pair for reception. It is wired
so that pins 1 & 2 are on one twisted pair and pins 3 & 6 are on a second pair according to common wiring
standards which meet the EIA/TIA T568A and T568B requirements.

1
Transmit Data Plus
Positive signal for the TD differential pair. This signal contains the serial
output data stream transmitted onto the network.
2
Transmit Data Minus
Negative signal for the TD differential pair. This contains the same output as
pin 1.
3
Receive Data Plus
Positive signal for the RD differential pair. This signal contains the serial
input data stream received from the network.
