Connect 1 to anyone cable left, mark it as #2
Find 2’s pair; mark it as #3.
Connect 3 to anyone cable left, mark it as #4
Find 4’s pair; mark it as #5.
Connect 5 to anyone cable left, mark it as #6
Find 6’s pair; mark it as #7.
Connect n to anyone cable left, mark it as #n+1
Find n+1’s pair; mark it as #n+2.
