Cable used to provide connectivity between similar devices.

Cable which can invert the cable arrangement inside so that the Transmit output of one device would go to the receive input of the other side is called crossover cable.

Cross over cable is that cable which attach and used to communicate between two same devices

You can say crossover cable is the cable that is used to connect same kinds of devices.
Such as two PC's, routers etc....

A crossover cable is a cable that maps all output signals on one electrical connector to the input signals on the other connector, allowing two electronic devices to perform full-duplex communication. Most commonly, the term refers to the Ethernet crossover cable, but other cables follow the same principle. It also allows devices to communicate without a switch, hub, or router. Cross-Over cables are used to connect two computers directly through NICs without the use of a Hub or Switch or to uplink two or more hubs, switches or routers. The Pins of the RJ-45 Connectors at both ends of a cross-over cable are connected as follows:

White/Orange Pin 1 ----------- Pin 3 White/Green
Orange Pin 2 ----------- Pin 6 Green
White/Green Pin 3 ----------- Pin 1 White/Orange Pin
Blue Pin 4 ----------- Pin 4 Blue
White/Blue Pin 5 ----------- Pin 5 White/Blue
Green Pin 6 ----------- Pin 2 Orange
White/Brown Pin 7 ----------- Pin 7 White/Brown
Brown Pin 8 ----------- Pin 8 Brown
Only two pairs of wires in the eight-pin RJ-45 connector are used to carry Ethernet signals. Both 10BASE-T and 100BASE-T use the same pins, a crossover cable made for one will also work with the other.
