Identifying a Rollover Cable
You can identify a rollover cable by comparing the two ends of the cable. Holding the cables side by side,
with the tab at the back, the wire connected to the pin on the outside of the left plug should be the same color
as the wire connected to the pin on the outside of the right plug. If your cable was purchased from Cisco, pin
1 will be white on one connector, and pin 8 will be white on the other. (A rollover cable reverses pins 1 and
8, 2 and 7, 3 and 6, and 4 and 5.)
