I was about to say - the outs go in, and the ins go out. The picture is wrong.

It is? This is the diagram I have laminated and glued on my termination kit never had any issues with it.

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.

In other words:

Not A-to-A xover

Not B-to-B xover

xover A-to-B
