Rj9/10/22 keystone

My house was wired with cat5e for the phone lines, only using the b/bw for phone use. I'm replacing the ends so I can wire parts of my home network since I don't use landlines phone. I'm comfortable with the infrastructure side, I used to do volunteer IT work with the local school system. The issue I'm having is locating a keystone jack for the smaller 4p4c or 4p2c phone connector. That port (rj9/10/22) is what all the wall plates previously were, but a fixed plate. One has my modem plugged in so that's getting converted in a 2-port keystone plate to add a run from the modem/wifi router back to the switch in the basement. All I can find are surface mount Jack's, or one piece wall plates, not keystones. submitted by /u/hobitopia [link] [comments]
