  My Graybar catalog shows such adaptors but none that have 4 conductors
8 pin sockets. There are 4 conductor 6-pin ones. HOWEVER, this catalog is
copyright 1987, before much of the modular connector for LANs hoopla so
there may be some newer stuff around that satisfies the 8pin, 4-conductor
requirement. (The manufacturer of the ones I found is Allen Tel.)

  If you're into a little of your own wiring, there are Modular jack Panels
and LAn Twisted Pair Distribution Panels in the catalog for converting 25-pair
cables to modular conenctors (4, 6, and 8 pin versions). They are mostly rack
mount.
