I'd say just try the cables and use whatever works. If you use the wrong kind of cable, it won't blow anything up, it just won't work. I don't think you'll even get a Link light (although I'm not certain about that last one).

Something to remember about ethernet cables...

All connections between devices require a crossover (TX and RX swapped). It's just that most hubs have all of their ports already crossed-over at the hub ports themselves.

(Except for one port which is usually either switch-selectable or fixed as straight-thru, for the purpose of uplinking to another hub.)

So the most common connection (PC to hub) is a straight cable. But for most other connections, a crossover is needed unless they've designed the device with a switchable port or it's already crossed at the port.

Clear as mud?
