The 8-pin connector used for connecting Ethernet switches, hubs and routers. 

Straight-through cables are usually the connector of this type. 

Forwarding data between the local network and the Internet through the most efficient 

path, based on the data’s destination IP address and current network conditions. A

higher level, is used for the 100Base-T network.
