iMac Gigabit ethernet

I've ordered an iMac with 4 ports. Gigabit ethernet capability is stated but I don't see any indication that there is a Gigabit Ethernet port. Can you explain?


iPhone 13, iOS 17

The Gigabit Ethernet port is in the power supply (the large white block on the cord halfway between the iMac and the wall plug.

  • Gigabit Ethernet (RJ-45): The 24-inch iMac with four ports includes a power adapter with built-in Ethernet. The 24-inch iMac with two ports comes standard with a power adapter without built-in Ethernet, but can be configured with Ethernet at the time of purchase. To use Ethernet, connect a router or modem to the Gigabit Ethernet port on the power adapter.
