Hi all,
Sorry I'm late with this but it has been wild and woofy around
here. Here's a note from a friend of mine who has worked at DEC for
ages. I haven't tried it out, but the info should be good. BTW, he says
the reason for the offset was to prevent people from mixing the
Decconnect plugs and jacks with modular telephone connections while
setting up a computer system.
BTW, the letters in the phone number translate to 2649837.
HTH.

Try 800-ANIXTER. The stuff is called DECconnect, MMJ (Modified Modular
Jack), and/or 423.
