agree  Roald Toskedal: Yup, I'd go for 'jack' :)

  -> Thank you. I like socket better though, as it more clearly depicts it as a "hole" you insert something into.

agree  montanus: Agree, "socket" is the female end of the digital connection, and is a little more specific than my own suggested 'connection'. 'Jack' is however the 'male' end (representing the cable end) and should not be used

  -> Thank you. Jack is often used for the female part too. See: http://support.gateway.com/s/Mobile/Gateway/M275/3501734rvr3... as an example

Ethernet connection


Explanation:
Tekst-utklippet er jo litt kort, slik at det må gjettes for
å begripe hva det hele dreier seg om. Imidlertid er Ethernet en bredbånds, digital kommunikasjonsstandard på signalprotokoll-og utstyrsnivå. Så det må dreie seg om en ekstern 'device' som tilkoples
til (f eks en datamaskin) som har en Ethernet-driver, via en standardkabel. 'Device' har en hunnkontakt ('stik')for kabelen (som har'hann'-forbindelsen). 'Device'har 2 analoge porter på seg. 'Port' vil si at denne kan tilkoples en analog enhet (så som en analog forsterker, analogt instrument etc)
