If you're talking about a modular plug, you probably use whatever type is cheapest (RJ-11 probably), and only connect up 3 of the 6 conductors. The handset cords are smaller, but the RJ-11 seems to be the defacto standard for a lot of prefab 1-wire products. There's even a standard of sorts for wire positions.
I wouldn't recommend punchdown blocks for use in situations where you'll be disconnecting and reconnecting often. Dave On Tue, 2008-11-11 at 11:38 -0500, Donald J.
