- aaronmdjones 2y ago8P8C is the plug. RJ45 is a wiring pin-out standard for that plug [1]. It's also a standard for telephony, not networking -- it carries one phone line. A gross waste of pins if you ask me. [1] Not quite. An RJ45S plug has a tab on the side that will not insert into an 8P8C jack.
