White/orange orange white/green blue white/blue green white/brown brown is the typical standard[0] used for both ends of a straight-through cable. Of course, the color order doesn't really matter as long as it is the same on both ends, or one end only swaps the 1st and 2nd wire with the 3rd and 6th respectively[1].
