Re: I'm quite happy

to call ethernet over coaxial cable "a coax cable" and ethernet over a cable designed for it "an ethernet cable"

Ethernet is a Data Link layer protocol and sits at Layer 2.

Coaxial cable and twisted pair cable are Physical layer transmission mediums and sit at Layer 1.

There is no such thing as “an Ethernet cable”
