Is etched in my memory. Swap oranges and greens to go between style A and B, do it on one end for a crossover.

^ This. There are A and B standards, and each standard has its own crossover. But there is also a crossover between A and B standards, which is typically what is used when referring to crossover cables.

Not B-to-B xover
