Ethernet protocol can’t reach the earth from the moon without there being a loud af antenna within 300 feet.
Fiber line to the bright side of the moon; transceiver there.
You would still need a power amp repeater every 500 meters, which requires a lot of power and create noise. You can’t be quiet with noise.
Even if you make them sub-surface, or otherwise shield them from the FOV of the antenna?
