Jeremy,
I just got done with the Cisco ICND 2 course and the instructor there
referred to them as, "quads" or "quartets". He said up front that there
was no standard and that it was not important what you called them as long
as whoever you were talking to knew what you meant ;-)
As others have said, I don't think there is a standard.
