Re: Bridging Module ?? (Leviton)

["RM" <trash@xxxxxxxxx>]

I have a 1x9 levition bridge on e-bay right now....$9.99 last I looked.  It
does exactly what you are talking about.  Punch down your Cat5 via 568A
standard for up to four CO lines to 8 destinations (the ninth spot is
occupied by the incoming).

Item 5762342508
