A bit OT

Anyone have any idea about phone wiring in Israel. Got a USB Telbox which I
was going to send out there but wondered if the plugs or wiring were
different. It's to be used with skype and a cordless phone. Did try the
Israel newsgroups but no replies.
TIA - Mike

Israel is 99% RJ11 but believe it or not there are BS6312 jacks in
use. God alone knows how they ended up with "BT connectors".

Basically if it works in the USA then it'll work in Israel - unless
you are exceptionally unlucky.

According to the sites that sell adaptors, Israel uses the
same connector as the UK.
