I want to test a ckt at work using my pc. One side should be bantam tr/rx cable and the other side should plug into my laptop. I would like what type of wiring scheme I should use on the rj45 end. Straight-through or crossover? Thanks

I guess I should clarify some things!! I want to test a T1 ckt the only problem is that both ends terminate on a DSX panel without having a proper test equipment I want to test throughput speed. One side should be bantam tr/rx cable and the other side should plug into my laptop. I would like know what type of wiring scheme I should use on the rj45 end. Straight-through or crossover? in order for my ethernet port to work. Thanks

Welcome to the board, Matt!
You can't do that. The T1 circuit is not ethernet and will not connect to your laptop in that manner. You'll need to get the proper test equipment to use the bantam jacks.
If the T1 is working properly, there is no need to test for speed because a T1 only has one speed. Now, if you have the proper CSU/DSU and router connected to the T1, you can do a simple speed test using your laptop, or any other PC connected to the network. (Assuming that this is data, not voice.)
If you give some more details, perhaps we can help you troubleshoot your problem. There are some very good T1 experts here. (BTW, I'm not one of them.)

A full T-1 has only 1 speed, 1.544Mbps. However you can get a T-1 in many speeds below that. 256, 384, 512, etc.
It is true you will need more than a PC to incorporate it into your LAN.
