Is that actually an ethernet port, or is it just an RJ45 for something like I2C, UART or some other protocol? It's also got a little port for a Bluetooth controller, which came with my desk. I bet it's possible to reverse engineer whatever protocol that is using over bluetooth/BLE.

This. It's not Ethernet. This article has some dissection of the data going over those ports: https://hackaday.io/project/4173-uplift-desk-wifi-link
