The plug is a standard RJ45 one, but only the 4 inner wires are used. Sometimes you need the outer wires to carry power, but I believe you shouldn't cross them. I strongly suggest that you do NOT use the T1 cable schemes, since they do not have much to do with the S0 BRI bus. The link I mentioned in the last message (isdn.jolly.de) carries the information you need, and I can assure you it works (without even the NT). If you connect a "live" NT (hooked to the central office) to Asterisk to access your ISDN line, then you are going to use a card in TE mode, without any special configuration, and a normal, off-the-shelf ISDN cable.
