Soundy 1 Posted March 25, 2011 Another idea is to use a keystone jack, like this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Keystone_module The punchdowns are color-coded, so you just need to match the wire colors. Some models require a punchdown tool, others don't... the kind you find at places like Home Depot usually don't. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
