    Visonic powermax+ door contact TAMPER OPEN

    Been looking on internet but couldn't find RJ11 cable with solid conductor. Also went to local eletrical store, he mentioned you won't get solid RJ11 with BT jack on one end as solid cable only used for extensions. Do you know the name of the cable or anywhere on the internet? Thanks

    Visonic powermax+ door contact TAMPER OPEN

    It's fiber wire thats why i found it so difficult to strip and tie it in such small holes. I also think it's something to do with the connection, is there any hard wire telephone cable? that would be so easy.
