Basically, there are three configurations: RJ-48C, RJ-48S, and RJ-48X. RJ-48C is the most common. The X has pins that short transmit to receive when you remove the plug; I have never encountered a jack that does this (it's pins 1&2 shorted to pins 4&5, NOT 1&2 and 7&8 like an RJ-31 alarm dialer jack). The RJ-48S uses 1&2 and 7&8, so check with your provider and equipment manufacturer to see what you require.
the RJ48X was used on powered T'1 spans, the loop back feature was in the jack, it kept the repeaters alive, and for remote testing on a loop back with no cord plugged in.
RJ48C and RJ48X both use pins 1&2 for as rec from network, and 3&4 as xmit to network on T'1 lines
RJ48s used for all sub rate data 56K and down, pins 1&2 ,7&8
I know this thread has been out there for a while but the info you have in the zip file Richard is absolutely great---lots of pinouts I have been looking for -- thanks
