Hello All,
I have a project I'm working on which involves a linux PC and a USB
(*dialup) Modem in a remote location for telnet'ing to that
PC by phone when the Ethernet connection is down.
I have already purchased the USB modems I need and some
dumb phones for line testing... Now I'm trying to figure out
which RJ11 cables I should be using for this. Looking around online I have seen RJ11 cables with 2 and 4 pins/connectors.
The USB Modem's came with a 2 pin RJ11 cable, but the USB Modem itself, if you look inside the RJ11 port on the modem,
it has 4 copper
"pins/connectors".
So can anyone recommend what RJ11 cables I should be getting for this? I wasn't sure if I would get any kind of speed or
performance increase if I used the 4
connector one instead of the 2?
I believe my choices are: 6P2C or
6P4C
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated..!
FYI : And in case it's relevant the USB Modems I purchased are the Zoom 56K External USB Modem (Model 3095). See it
here --> Zoom Telephonics - V.92 56K USB Mini External Modem
Thanks in Advance,
Matt
