Simple Q for those with guiders and shoestring adapter

I have a shoestring astronomy parallel port adapter and a meade LX90 with APM.

I need a cable to attach to two. For those of you with an st-4 compatible mount like the APM, if you line up the two cable plugs together (rj-12's, with both locking tabs facing away from you)

are the wire colours repeated in order, or a mirror image?

eg WBlkRGYBlu:WBlkRGYBlu or WBlkRGYBlu:BluYGRBlkW?

Thanks

Straight through cable. 1-1, 2-2 etc. ie. Your first option WBlkRGYBlu:WBlkRGYBlu.
Cheers
