ok then. by lead in i meant from cRIO to the first black jag. the rest sounds like stanard phone wire which 2 or 4 wires, fits in an RJ-45 socket just fine... they do that in office buildings a lot.

sounds like making the wires requires modular phone cord, RJ-11 (phone) jacks, the proper crimp tool, and a CAT 5e patch cable. i think i saw the crimp tools for phone wire at Lowe's cheap...
