This is *really* bad advice.  You are telling him to use the cable as
the crossover so that he does not need a hub and to use the cable for
purposes other than network.  You should NEVER use the cable for this. 
You should make a short patch cord that does the crossover.  Never put
it into the cable itself!  If he ever decides to use the hub, he is
screwed!  If you need to put a telephone line over the same cable as the
network, then use a splitter at the ends, do not use the cable jacks as
splitters.
