The application is not phone lines, so data assignment is irrelevant.<br>
RJ12 and RJ25 are both 6P6C, which is all that matters.<br>
<br>
By the way, the tanning bed uses cables with RJ10 at one end, RJ14 the<br>
other. RJ10 is sold in stores as "handset" jacks. They're smaller, 4P4C.<br>
The fact the cables have dissimilar ends means the manufacturer tried to<br>
force customers to buy cables from them, at an over inflated price. I<br>
can't find RJ10 plug ends anywhere in Winnipeg, but that's Ok. Just by a<br>
"handset" cable with RJ10 on both ends, cut off one and crimp on RJ14. A<br>
normal telephone jack crimping tool can apply RJ11 or RJ14 plug ends.<br>
Although for some reason only has 4 blades, not 6, so won't work with<br>
RJ12 or RJ25.<br>
<br>
But customer got impatient, took the circuit board back. Said he'll<br>
order a new board. He said the manufacturer charges hundreds of dollars.<br>
His impatience will cost him. Oh well.<br>
