    Yeah, but I still prefer “stupid shitty 6-pin abomination” name for clarity.

        My house growing up had a bunch of those (female) ports around and we had the adapters to convert them to RJ11.

      Not sure why it’s shitty - easy to assemble, cheap, effective at eliminating contact noise with a high-compliance wiping contact.

      the only shitty part is the exposed retaining clip which gets broken off
