RJ12 is the slightly bigger 6-pin connector : you are talking about. Common use for the RJ names is: The 4 pin with 2 installed is an RJ9. The 4 pin with 4 installed is an RJ10. The 6 pin with 4 installed is an RJ11. The 6 pin with 6 installed is an RJ12. The 8 pin with 8 installed is an RJ45. Reality is bit different. RJ-11 is a 6 pin modular connector with the inside pair as tip and ring. RJ-12 is a 6 pin modular connector with the inside pair as tip and ring and the second pair to indicate the line is in use but will only have 4 contacts. RJ-13 is about the same as an RJ-12 (a 4 wire standard) RJ-14 is a 6 pin connector with the inside pair as line 1 and the 2nd pair as a second line. I've been able to find the 6 conductor jacks that fit in a standard wall plate from an electronics supply place but they were $8 each. I wanted to maek sure people didn't plug ethernet wires into the phone lines. I could have put in RJ45 for 1/2 the cost. -tim http://web.abnormal.com
