crossover and straight cables Solved/Closed

Question

Hello,
Please, I want to know the basic differnce between crossover cable and straight cable. I saw a material that said crossover cable can be used to connect router LAN to switch/hub and straight cable can also be used to connect router LAN to switch/hub so am confused. I need a clarification. Thank you.
