Actually the connector you are talking about is called 'MMJ'. RJ11 and RJ12 modular connectors share the same physical size but have 2 and 3 pairs respectively. MMJ connectors have the same physical size as RJ11/RJ12 but have the locking tab offset to the left. > But DEC also then usually supplies adapters. Buying RJ12-DB9/DB25 adapters and crimping patch cables with MMJ and RJ12 ends seems to be the best way of doing things, unless of course you happen to have a console server that is wired for MMJ. :) -- | Matthew N.
