@coolbean I've never ever heard it referred to anything but RJ45, thought it was a standard name (like backed by a standard) that had evolved out of telco gear because i know the phone jacks and other related things are RJ11 etc

@coolbean is CAT standard though? surely you search for that, unless you need the jacks?

@autumn also somewhat more water resistant so they can survive even more network gore

@coolbean lmao that actually reminds me that my brother took an Ethernet cable out of a hole in the wall into another room and he re-terminated it with the most massive stupidest most robust connector ive Ever seen in my life. and its Impossible to remove out of anything.

@autumn you dont even know that firewire actually just repurposed the mini displayport connector cause apple already had the rights to those

@autumn its so annoying i NEED the debranded chinesium copy oh my god i hate harting's branding so much but they made serial crossover cables use a mirrored connector (because of course they would maintain support for the rj45 console port! i love cisco!) so you cant mix up the ports/cables. id still colorcode them though cause that light blue for crossover serial cables is just so cute
