Pretty textbook cabling for these types of connections. Switch to router and switch to server both use straight-through UTP, routers underground get fiber, and router-to-router is crossover. Can't see another way unless they're hiding a trick.
S1 to R1: Straight-through, R2 to R3 (underground): Fiber Optic, R1 to R2: Crossover, S3 to Server0: Straight-through. These follow Cisco standard wiring rules-straight-through for switch-to-router/server, crossover for router-to-router. Pretty sure that's it but let me know if you spot something off.
S1 to R1: Straight-through, R2 to R3 via conduit: Fiber, R1 to R2: Crossover, S3 to Server0: Straight-through. Usually folks mix up crossover and straight-through here.
S1 to R1: Straight-through, R2 to R3 underground: Fiber optic, R1 to R2: Crossover, S3 to Server0: Straight-through. Pretty sure that's how Cisco standard cabling looks here but if I'm missing a gotcha let me know.
Yeah, usual Cisco rules: straight-through for switch-router and switch-server, fiber for underground, crossover for router-router.
Makes sense to use Straight-through for Switch S1 to Router R1 and S3 to Server0, Fiber Optic for underground between R2 and R3, and Crossover for router-to-router (R1 to R2). That matches Cisco cabling standards, pretty confident here.
Switch S1 to Router R1: Straight-through UTP, R2 to R3 (underground): Fiber Optic, R1 to R2: Crossover UTP, S3 to Server0: Straight-through UTP. That's standard cabling logic for these setups, I think-unless they're hinting at something tricky. Agree?
Connects Switch S1 to Router R1: Straight-through UTP, R2 to R3 via underground: Fiber Optic, R1 to R2: Crossover UTP, Switch S3 to Server0: Straight-through UTP. This matches standard cabling practice, pretty sure this is right. Anyone else seeing different pairings?
S1-R1: Straight-through, R2-R3 underground: Fiber optic, R1-R2: Crossover, S3-Server0: Straight-through. Console cable's a common trap but not for data paths here.
Switch S1 to Router R1 = Straight-through UTP, Router R2 to R3 via underground = Fiber Optic, Router R1 to R2 = Crossover UTP, Switch S3 to Server0 = Straight-through UTP. That's the usual setup for these devices, but if anyone thinks there's a twist here let me know. Not 100% if they're trying to trip us up with device types.
