  Hi Danming816  If your main reason for using ethernet is to extend the cable length, there are options for extending the USB cable length.  These include a high quality premium USB cable such as a 5 meter one that can maintain the camera signal over a longer distance, or use of USB cabling that incorporates active repeater signal boosting technology for a +10 meter reach.  A reel of fiber optic cabling could also be used to extend the camera up to 100 meters.

  All of these options are provided by a company called Newnex who are officially recommended as a USB cable supplier for RealSense cameras in Intel's data sheet document for the 400 Series cameras and can provide industrial-grade cable products.

  If you would prefer to use ethernet cabling, the link below directs to a white-paper document published by Intel about setting up an open-source ethernet networking system with RealSense 400 Series cameras.  This paper provides details about how to configure the camera as a network camera.  Its list of recommended components includes a 90-degree Type-A to USB Type-C cable and standard CAT5 ethernet cable.

  There is also a white-paper available for assembling an alternative RealSense ethernet networking project called EtherSense that uses a Micro USB3 – USB3 adaptor and also references CAT5 ethernet cabling.
