Once you remove the wedge, you should be able to use a normal 6 wire 
phone cord. Of course by removing the wedge you remove any way of 
locking it in. MMJ connectors, and crimping tools are not that hard to 
find, if you're going to need lots of these cables it'd be worth 
investing in one of these tools. If you only need like 1 or 2 of them, 
I have the connectors, and a crimping tool, let me know how long a 
cable you need, and I'll make it up for you.
