The crossover cable switches the signals between one end of the cable to the other. This causes the transmit signal on one end to be the receive signal on the other end.
The reason for crossing over is to allow a transmitting system to send signals to a receiving system. Without crossing over the signals a transmit signal would arrive at a transmit signal, which is equivalent to a person talking to another person without ever listening (i.e. it won't work for a conversation).

Switch to Switch with UTP requires a crossover cable. Straight-through cables generally will not work unless one of the switch ports is specifically designed to operate in DTE mode.
Most UTP cable is limited to 100 meters.
Actually, a UTP cable doesn`t have any shielding. UTP stands for Unshielded Twisted Pair.
Typically a straight thru UTP cable can be used.

The UTP (Unshielded twisted pair) cable is preferred; it's far less expensive to install in large amounts.
