    RJ45 to Telephone

    I have a Patch Panel in my house, and a series of RJ45 sockets, I want to route a Telephone socket to my office, and I might as well do it over Cat5, since the Telephone point is in the comms cupboard.

    Anyone know where I can get Cat5 to Telephone cable converters?

    I have seen them before

    Not sure which one I want.

    I have a Telephone socket, and need a telephone socket output at the other end of the cable.



    Question is, anyone know of anywhere cheaper?

    you definitely want to stay away from these ones



    they are a bugger to remove from the socket and can break easily. we use similar ones ar work.

    £1.75 any better?

    Maplin sell them, but youre looking at a tenner a pop. Probably as easy to buy a new face plate and wire it yourself, it aint hard.

    Defies the point in having a patch panel and being able to have phone lines and network lines in diff rooms
