Crimp Cat5e cable wire to Rj11 plug

I would like to put a CAT6 RJ45 connector for the phone line as I already have wired the phone line using CAT6 cable. Is it possible to use the CAT5E cable to be crimped with RJ11 so that Phone connection could be laid down in the same Network plug instead of using the standard Phone cables. How do you wire CAT5 to RJ11 plug? Also how do you Crimp Cat5e cable wire to Rj11 plug ??

Yes, it is possible to use the cat5 cable for both voice and data. Use the BT (or similar) doubler with a modem cable (BT plug to RJ11), into the socket, then either use the lets automate adaptor or a CAT5 or CAT5e or some other cable.

Try using the any of the unused pairs. You could have two phone lines. Wire is too cheap too risk the problems of interference. I have everything terminated at a cat5e patch panel. I just snagged a parallel patch cables, snipped the RJ45 and replaced it with an RJ11. Check this - How to crimp RJ45 cable

Use rj45 jacks and cat5e for everything and make sure to punch down all pairs and then use rj11 cords, as far as I know only Pairs 1 and 2 are used for phone line, even pair 1 only is enough, but I don't think it would be enough for DSL. It is not recommended to combine LAN and telephone wiring into one cable.
