Is a LAN cable the same as an Ethernet cable?

A LAN cable and an Ethernet cable refer to the same type of cable used for local area network (LAN) connections. An Ethernet cable is specifically designed to connect devices in a LAN and facilitate data communication between them. It is the standard cable used for wired Ethernet connections, which is a common method of networking devices such as computers, routers, switches, and other network-enabled devices.

Ethernet cables are typically designed with specific performance standards and specifications, such as Cat5e, Cat6, or Cat6a, which determine factors like data transfer speed, bandwidth, and maximum cable length. These cables consist of twisted pairs of copper wires inside a protective outer jacket.

So, whether you refer to it as a LAN cable or an Ethernet cable, it generally refers to the same type of cable used for wired network connections in a local area network.
