You need to splice a phone line in the middle of a run and keep it going. This straight-through joiner does exactly that: pin 1 lands on pin 1, pin 2 on pin 2, all the way down. Simple, reliable, done. One thing to be crystal clear about – this is wired for telephone configurations only. The pairs aren't twisted, so it will not carry a Cat5, Cat6, or Cat7 data signal. If you're patching a network cable, grab YN8034 (Cat5) or YN8037 (Cat6/7) instead. For a phone line that's been cut behind the reception desk? This is your five-minute fix
