Exactly what crack are you taking.

10Mbit Enet UTP uses 4 wires. Oranges and Greens (using the 568-B wiring
Standard)

Funny 100Mbit Enet UTP uses 4 wires. Oranges and Greens (using the 568-B
wiring Standard)

Now 1000Mbit Enet UTP use 8 wires. Orange,Blues Greens,Browns (again
using the 568-B wiring Standard).

If you want Paul, I could point you to the standards pages.
