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.)

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.)
