are not interchangeable. There is a different number of wires in each one, and each
has a different connector. An Ethernet cable connector (also called an RJ-45
connector) is wider and thicker and always has 8 contacts on the end. A phone
connector has between 2 and 6 contacts.

NOTE: The HP Photosmart supports networks with automatic speed negotiation
capable of 10 or 100 Mbps.
