English term

crossover cable

GBK English to Danish Tech/Engineering Computers: Systems, Networks
Definition from WatchGuard:
Ethernet cables have multiple wires inside them. Some are dedicated to sending; some are dedicated to receiving. A crossover cable is a special cable in which the receive and send wires cross so that the sending leads on one device can directly connect to the receiving leads on the other device. When WatchGuard encloses a crossover cable with its products, it is typically color-coded red for easy identification.
Example sentences:
Compared to standard Ethernet cables, the internal wiring of Ethernet crossover cables reverses the transmit and receive signals. (About.com: Wireless / Networking)
Ethernet crossover cables are commonly used for temporarily networking two devices in the absence of a network router, switch or hub. (TechFAQ)
Both 10BASE-T and 100BASE-T use the same pins, a crossover cable made for one will also work with the other. (MakeItSimple.com)

Permission now granted! Today I was allowed to submit my response :-)
Michael Davies Feb 26, 2009:
I know the answer - but am not permitted to post! I am 100% certain of the answer but, because I am a relative 'newbie' and didn't appreciate the difference between 'specialisations' and 'areas of interest' (until today!), I am not allowed to post it. By the time I am allowed to do so (3 days time), the topic will have been closed! :(

Ethernet crossover-kabler er almindeligt anvendt til midlertidigt networking to enheder i mangel af et netværk router, switch eller hub.<br /><br />[Obs.

agree NetLynx : Netop! (Og det bør ikke hedde 'crossover cable' på dansk)

mange tak!
agree Joern Wennerstroem : Definitely, on principle I favour Danish versions of technical terms. 'Krydskabel' conveys the meaning unambiguously.
