There isn't a standard adaptor for this off the shelf. Given the right tools, it really isn't difficult to replace the BT jackpoints with RJ45. If you don't want to replace your jackpoints then you can make your own adaptors with a few cheap parts.

CYaBro: Why oh why are BT sockets still being installed in new houses!?
The crazy thing is they cost a lot more than RJ45 sockets!

I went on site to a customer today too, they had just moved their business into a newly fitted out building, and they also had BT sockets everywhere!



I've been doing a lot of work in a brand new apartment building in Wellington that has 2x BT jacks wired in series in each apartment - there are electricians and electrical design companies in this country who quite frankly don't deserve to be getting any work.

I guess they didn't get the memo that the days of dialup interwebz are over?
