Loking at the Samsung Chromebook specs, and picture gallery, I see that the gigabit ethernet connector slot looks somewhat 'T' shaped. (Not at all RJ45 shaped)

I have not yet used or found out much about gigabit but what I have seen so far suggests it is backwards compatible with earlier connectors, physically at least.

Am I missing something?
