What is a Yost or Rollover cable used for?

  1. Connecting printers

  2. Communication to routers/firewalls

  3. Charging devices

  4. Transferring data between computers

The correct answer is: Communication to routers/firewalls

A Yost or Rollover cable is used for direct communication to routers/firewalls. Unlike a regular Ethernet cable, this type of cable has its internal wires in reversed order, allowing for direct communication to devices that are not connected to a network. Therefore, options A, C, and D are incorrect as they involve different functions and purposes for the cable.
