Actually, I meant power line, but many of them also have modem line 
supression as well.  I'll summarize after a few more days of 
replies.

Just thumbing through the catalogs on my desk...

Inmac sells an RJ-11 A/B switch (model 1991) for $125 (a lot of 
money!), or an A/B/C/D switch for $135.  Order Line 800-547-5444.

Black Box has an RJ-11 A/B A/B switch (model GS-SW036A) for $79, or 
A/B/C/D (model GS-SW037A) for $99.  Order line 800-321-0746.

Ooo, here's good one:  L-Com has an RJ-11 A/B switch for $39 (model 
DSM); this looks like a compact, light-duty model.  Their more 
traditional heavy-duty model (DTS6M2) is $59.50.  Order line 
800-343-1455.

I'm sure there's more (I've got a BIG stack of catalogs), but this 
is a start, anyway.
