 DSL RJ11 cable
is the Connection from the Phone outlet to a DSL Modem a standard phone RJ11 cable or is a special
Cable, plus how long can it be?

Dear lizandro,

This could be a phone-grade or CAT3 cable with RJ11 plugs on the ends of it. The modems have RJ45 for the Ethernet interface, which is used to connect it to the local network.

Sincerely,
Dmitri Abaimov, RCDD
