I had thought of doing that, and have actually bought some RJ-12's to
experiment with.

Unfortunately the end with the MMJ is the DB-25 adapter, and that's
often attached to the back of a chassis on rails, i.e. it moves, meaning
that even with a cable arm one has to be very careful to fix it so that
it doesn't fall out should I pull the chassis out the front for
maintenance....

I suppose I could hot-glue them in so long as I was careful to only dab
the outside after it's inserted (i.e. so it can be cut out if need be).
