Its not a matter of the phase but of the grounds. Ethernet signals itself are completely isolated but if you’re running a shielded (STP) cable a ground loop will be established. Pretty the same with transformer based DI boxes and the ground lift switch.
If you have to go a long distance I’d probably use a shielded cable with a short unshielded patch cable on one end. But be aware of different ground levels which may be uncomfortable to touch by hand…
