Adele, Connecting two crossover cables together will not really accomplish anything as it will simply behave as a normal cable. If you want to extend an existing crossover cable, you'd need to couple it with a straight-through cable. This is because the pairs of wires inside the cable have already been crossed -- attaching another set of crossed pairs will effectively "uncross" them.
