Plugs
There are two types of modern British Telecom plugs — 431A and 631A. 431A is 4-way and 631A 6-way. They fit a standard "type 600" telephone socket. There are also plugs with only two contacts commonly seen on modem leads. These are a recent introduction and do not seem to be easily available as separate parts.
Use in Hong Kong
