RJ11 Jack, Panel-mount, ROUND HOLE

Does such a thing exist?

I'm not much good at cutting square holes in panels ;-)

I love to cook with wine. Sometimes I even put it in the food.

I don't know if one exists specifically for RJ-11, but there are plenty meant
for Ethernet (RJ-45), and you can plug RJ-11 plugs into RJ-45 jacks and all.

See, e.g., http://www.mouser.com/catalog/catalogUSD/643/1328.pdf ,
www.mouser.com/catalog/629/984.pdf ,etc.

Mouser has one but it isn't cheap at 27 bucks.

http://www.tycoelectronics.com/catalog/pn/en/1-1546415-1

What kind of 'panel'?

May not be elegant but use an RJ11 wall plate for like a buck or two.

Buy a punch or use a milling machine. If the material is soft you can
use a drill-press and a cross vice as well.

If you have a drill press, you can use a Broache to make a square hole.
Might be cheaper than a Punch.
<http://www.mcmaster.com/#square-broaches/=b2tj9o>

But for this I would use a nibbler, like the one RadioShack sells (or
used to)

Just use a file. It won't take that long.

Wall plates, sure. Slightly more difficult for RJ11.

Keystone has a 'modular' system. I.E. you get a plate with square
holes and then populate them with what you want. Looks like their
fewest holes is 2 but, on Amazon at least, 3 is cheaper and you can
put blanks in unused holes.

http://www.amazon.com/gp/search/ref=sr_cb_?sf=sbc&rh=i%3Aelectronics%2Cn%3A172282%2Ck%3Ablack+keystone+wall+plate&sort=price&keywords=black+keystone+wall+plate&ie=UTF8&qid=1297988566=n%3A172282%2Ck%3Ablack+keystone+wall+plate&sort=price

I think this is the RJ11 for them

http://www.amazon.com/RJ11-Vertical-Termination-Keystone-Black/dp/B003V77FTI


Kinda cool, actually. You can even get banana jack, binding post, and,
of course, RCA jack inserts.

Of course, on a project box you can drill holes for those but for wall
mount the plate in neat.

Multiple people make these things as "Keystone insert" is rather like
a 'standard form factor'.

Would probably be best to find a place that has the lot rather than
piecemeal via Amazon.

I don't claim these folks are 'best price' but they seem to have a
good selection and at least it would be combined shipping.

Here they say in 2, 3, 4, or 6 but I swear I see a '1' in that picture
and the 'length' box, which I presume is number of holes, has '1' as a
choice.

Not sure this one is actually 'black' but it looks close enough.

They've got RJ11's up the ying-yang.

Good Luck!

Or a hot X-acto knife, or even an X-acto saw.

You're right. *That* one can't. The one I bought from RS about 20
years ago can. I use it about twice a week. There should be similar
products out there that will handle that depth in plastic. Other
alternative is a deep-throat fret saw. something like
