Are you sure it’s not meant to be an RJ45 plug? The cylindrical thing to the bottom left corner of the wall socket looks like it might be a BNC plug. Which would make sense for the era of quake when Ethernet wasn’t yet ubiquitous.

RJ45 next to BNC implies a token ring network, not ethernet :)

My combo 10base2/10baseT card begs to differ.

That was literally what I said:

Also token ring was just one of a few different network protocols that supported BNC. Technically you could run Ethernet 10base2 over BNC too (In fact I used to have network cards that supported this, though I only used them for 10baseT).

TR was definitely the more common protocol for BNC hardware though.

Token ring was the protocol, BNC the connector. Have you even lived without StarCraft on X.25 ? Don't forget to cap the ends!

Nope. Ethernet back in the 10mbit days was over rj45 or thin cable BNC. Man I am old.

Yes i look closer. Maybe it is a rj45.
