An Ethernet plug is a type of physical connector used to connect an Ethernet cable to a device, such as a computer or router. Ethernet plugs use either a modular 8P8C (eight position, eight contact) or a Registered Jack–45 (RJ–45) configuration. The RJ–45 plug is the most commonly used type and can be identified by its 8 pin connectors. An Ethernet cable will have a male plug on each end, which inserts into the female RJ–45 port of a device.
