Good Afternoon

Maybe a bit of an odd question but as I've alluded to in other posts I'm in the process of swapping out phones form our legacy PBX to voip handsets on a hosted could solution.

We have some phones that are wall mounted and I've found with some that getting a standard cat 5/6 cable into the back of the phone and getting it flush on the wall is not easy.

Would cutting an old phone cable and putting RJ45's on it in a 10/100 pin out work?
Probably 30cm/12" or less just to get form a socket in the wall out to the handset?

Thanks

Grant

On wall mounted phones, I've found that putting an RJ45 plug on the cable and bypassing the jack is the easiest, cleanest thing to do.
