RJ45 is a connector with a key notch sticking out and a "programming" resistor joining two of the pins. It won't work for Ethernet at all, the plug side can't even fit in the 8P8C socket Ethernet uses. If you grind off the key it'll still not work, because of the embedded resistor. Also the pinout is totally wrong, so even if you didn't have the resistor it wouldn't work. None of the RJ connectors have the correct pinout for Ethernet.
