I am remodeling my store, and I need to relocate the telephone wiring. The box the phone lines comes into is just a bunch of binding posts that have the individual wires soldered to them. I can't imagine how old it is. I actually only count 32 individual posts. I want to replace it with a 66 block rj21x network interface, but I was wondering if there is a specific brand and model I should get. The only one I can find is the Keptel SNI-8925 Of course I am also a little concerned about the old wiring that comes from outside. I think the 25 wire cable (it's probably 20' long,) is all straight wires, and we do have some cross talk on the phone lines. Is there any chance the phone company will replace the lines without charging me an arm and a leg? Also, will me replacing the NID cause problems with the phone company? When we got DSL installed, they put in a new 4 or 5 line NID, but they just ran cable to it from the old NID instead of from outside.
