Re: Telephone wiring question

["matt_miles_uk" <m_miles@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

This is where I was getting confused.  I plan to make a patch lead
from the BT master socket in the house to the back of my phone patch
panel.  This will be wired in parallel.  so for my extensions if i
wanted to use a converter all I would need is a secondary one... so
whats the difference between using one of those and chopping the BT
plug off?

Cheers,

Matt

RJ46 plug! (only a few quid each I think???)
