Agreeing with yardbird’s post and elaborating. I suspect vendors misuse names for the “benefit” of the general public …who don’t know any different. Pathetically, ethernet is misunderstood as cable/wiring. Monoprice sold me hdmi over ethernet… it’s not, actually just uses CAT5e.
A few posts back you mentioned RJ45. A removable network connection! How often do you see someone telling you they have a hard wired network? You know they don’t have a punch down block.
