568A and B aren't straight vs crossover. they are simply two different schemes for the order of the pairs to the connector. basically, they swap the green and orange pairs.
I would stick with T568A
I commonly see jacks wired to T568B standard. I've seen some CAT6 jacks with only the colors shown for T568B. The coloring for T568A is backwards compatible with 1 or 2 line phone connectors.
