I'm trying to get one of those Krone-type punch-down boxes - you know the type where BT have all the cables punched in?

I have one on the wall in the office and I've wired my PBX into it. I need a new telephone line but I don't want to call BT out until I move my cables to a different box.

I can't seem to find anywhere online to buy them - a lot of people have siggested maplin but they don't do them either.

Anyone know what I am talking about or its proper name? Or better still where to buy one.

You'll have to register to purchase, but you can pay by credit card.

The tool you refer to is an IDC Insertion Tool, sometimes called a punchdown tool. Careful if you not used one before, as you can use it back to front and damage the connector. If I'm teaching my grandmother......ignore this!
