I should point out that you're all wrong, even the mighty Rod Speed...
RJ11 is the little 4-pin connector which is used to link the handpiece
with the telephone unit. RJ12 is the slightly bigger 6-pin connector
you are talking about.

Dick Smith sells RJ12 triple adapters, but you can't gang them without
using other connectors. I recommend:

1 x RJ12 triple adapter, 3 x 8cm length of phone cable, and 2 x RJ12 double
adapters with sockets all around.

The RJ12 triple adapter is the type with 1 plug and 3 sockets, as Dickie
sells. The 3 lengths of cable you can buy or make, generally it's cheaper
to just buy them. Plug each into the triple adapter. Then on the ends of
the cable, plug the RJ12 double adapters. You've now got 6 sockets to
plug phones and stuff into, and Ringer Equivalence limits be damned!

Nick.
