RJ 45 & RJ 11 Adapters 1

[merlinman]

I was wondering if anyone knew of a kind of an adapter that would split an RJ45 into the WHITE GREEN & WHITE BLUE out of one jack, and the WHITE ORANGE & WHITE BROWN out of another.

What I need to do is take a 4 Pair cable, and connect a 2 Pair phone AND a FAX to it.

I would need this adapter at both ends of the wire, so I could feed both Extensions (The Single Line Fax & The 2 Wire Phone) into the 4 Pair cable and then at the other end, connect each one to it's own seperate jack.

I thought there was a "BRAND REX" that would do this, but I am unable to find out such info.

Thanx in advance.

It might be best to make these yourself. You can use RJ45 plugs and keystone jacks. Do you have any slack cable at the jack? If so, you could just split the 4-pair cable into a jack for the phone and a jack for the fax, instead of just one jack at the location.

Perhaps Servamatic can recommend one, he prefers to use some sort of 'dongle' or modular adapter rather than reterminating the various pairs into jacks on the faceplate.

I've used wye adapters for ethernet before, should be doing exactly what you ask for. Seems to me I had to mailorder them at some point, couldn't find them from the major structured cabling suppliers but that may have changed.

Good Luck
