SOURCE: phone jack wiring
Its typical in apartments for the phones to come in through a single source and then fan out to other wire leads to the rest of the phone jacks in the place. However, I think its odd that your 'source 2' has 9 wires. I'd expect 8.
One idea is to take off a phone plate in another room and see if the wire colors on source 2 or 3 match the unknown source wires. If so, then just match the wires that connect to the same plugs in the plates.

Take a look at this image:
Notice that the Line 1 will typically present on pins 3&4 and Line 2 on 2&5. I would think in your case Black/Blue is Line 1 (3&4) and Yellow/Black is Line 2 (2&5).
If you have a 1 line phone and only have 1 line active, then typically blue and blue/white can be connected to the Blue and Black of your Jack. If this doesn't work, switch with the Yellow and Black.
Please let me know if you have further questions. Good Luck!
SOURCE: Wiring on a RCA RJ-45 wall jack
the RJ45 wallplate is not meant for ethernet. It's an 8P8C connector for a phone. Will it work as a network jack? Maybe. I wouldn't use it, but if you really want to try, wire it thusly:
1 Blue --- Orange/White
2 Orange --- Orange
3 Black --- Green/White
4 Red --- Blue
5 Green --- Blue/White
6 Yellow --- Green
7 Brown --- Brown/White
8 White --- Brown
I'd still recommend a CAT5 wallplate with a CAT5 jack.

RJ-45 Pins are with the spring tab down and read left to right. Do you have an RJ-45 Crimping tool?
Just use 568-B or 568-A on both ends of the same cable.

Hello
Your cat5 will make up 4 pair. org/org/wht being one pair and so on.
So as long as you keep them in pairs you will be ok.
Meaning. Pair one from cat5 org and org/wht to wall plate wht and brn.This would be one complete pair.So the wall plate colors are different from cat5 but as long as you stay in pairs and go from left to right on your conections you should be ok.
Notice that the Line 1 will typically present on pins 3&4 and Line 2 on 2&5. I would think in your case Black/Blue is Line 1 (3&4) and Yellow/Black is Line 2 (2&5).58 views
