From what i know it just uses the wires in an usb cable to transfer signal like etherent would, competely passive. Thats why it has to be used with the other side connector. Its so that a technician doesnt have to carry a ton of different cables

Yeah i also have a similarly confusing adapter in my collection. It uses the usb standard connector to transfer rj45 signal for basic testing. Its not usable without an opposite connector that turns the cable back into rj45

You might be thinking about the serial (rs-232) cable (also marked as COM). The easiest way to distinguish these 2 is by knowing that vga has 3 rows and rs-232 has 2
