Correct me if I am wrong. To use an uplink from a hub or switch to another hub/switch you would use a regular Ethernet cable and plug it into the regular port from the Uplink port.

If you are going from one port on the hub/switch to another port on a different hub/switch, you would use a Crossover Cable. Does that sound correct?
