Comment on Ethernet: The Basicsparent

That's the basic idea, yes. The link in the caption [https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/I/61llDf3WTvL...] is unusually helpful, showing each port using four connectors of the uplink. So: 100mbps max, and you'll just get garbage on the other end unless you're careful.

It's an ugly hack, but hey, there's a lot uglier in active use.

That sounds like a clever workaround, utilizing multiple connectors for each port to maximize efficiency. But I'm curious, what specific challenges arise when dealing with the potential for receiving garbage on the other end, despite being careful?
