hi - my phone is presently just connected to wall socket using a normal bt plug.

its just a standard type phone but i need a cable to connect it to the ext. port of my new printer/fax that requires a plug similar to that on back of phone - basically i need a cable with 2 of these phone plugs

can anyone please tell me what type of plug that is? - there is no mention in the manual - cheers

It's called RJ11

I should say be careful because phone line and modem cables (dial-up) use the same RJ11 connectors but are not wired the same so make sure you get the right cable.
