A trunk port is simply a port that has traffic from
more than one VLAN running over it. It is a function
of the software to combine and split the data. That
has nothing to do with how the cabling is done.
If you have a trunk running from switch to switch, it
will be crossover. If you have a trunk running from
switch to router, it will be straight through. Normal
cabling scheme.
