How to connect RJ11 to Cat5 pins 7 & 8?
Hello, I have read that in the same cat5 cable, pins 1 thru 6 can be used for data/lan and pins 7 & 8 can be used to run phone line. My question is RJ11 has 4 wires(Green/Yellow pair and Red/Blue pair), how do I connect these 4 RJ11 wires to 2 pins on cat5? thanks, -Satish
