Normally, there are 2 types of wiring:

Name Pin Cable Color Pin Name
TX+ 1 White/Orange 1 TX+
TX- 2 Orange 2 TX-
RX+ 3 White/Green 3 RX+
4 Blue 4
5 White/Blue 5
RX- 6 Green 6 RX-
7 White/Brown 7
8 Brown 8

The + side of each pair is called the "tip" and the - side is called the "ring", a reference to old telephone connectors.

Note: It´s important that each pair is kept as a pair. TX+ & TX- must be in the pair, and RX+ & RX- must together in another pair. (Just as the table above shows).
