Today I went to the tech market. Unfortunately for me, they don't sell RJ11==USB adaptor anymore.

The #46021a HP keyboard with its #HIL interface and #SDL type a connectors has arrived! Definitely needs some cleaning.

Now to contemplate butchering an #RJ11 till it fits the Type a SDL plug for 40 hours or to just buy the SDL plugs for 40 euros.

Buying the SDL plugs is only marginally better as I will have to manually force the crimps down on the connector.

Wir werden von unserer Dose auf RJ 11 gehen, von da aus kommt man bei bedarf auch wieder an TAE-F oder N.

Yay - pay off. Some tools you grudgingly buy, unsure they'll get much use beyond a current project. A cpl of years ago I grudginly bought a proper crimping tool (abandoned the ol' needle-nose and screwdriver-blade technique, and associated injuries).

Now wiring VoIP #RJ11 jacks I noted the wire colours in one weren't consistent, and then noted the contacts were dead too. The crimping tool made a fiddly job just a few seconds work. Glad to have had the tool on hand! Pay off!

Did you know that #RJ11 connectors come in left and right chiralities – i.e., the second row of pins is either shifted to the left or to the right? Of course, the #macintosh Plus #clone uses the less common variety used in the grey connector on the right, which I had to salvage from an old phone...

It's very different in the world outwith BT, which you have barely touched upon. #VirginMedia's cable modems don't need add-ons, as the ones that have been rolled out for years now have #RJ11 sockets.

And lack of pulse dial as a misfeature is a bit of a stretch. I haven't needed pulse dialling for any of my CPE since the 1980s. I even had a BT-to-RJ11 adapter ready from the 1990s.

The major problem is the lack of 999 service in a power outage.
