This scheme actually works very well.  We have been using it internally
for over 3 years.  Essentially, since manufacturers haven't been able
to agree on a standard, we just make all of our machines/terminals/modems
look alike and use RJ-45.  Ironically, this idea occurred to us as a result
of the many problems we had trying to hook up the first Beta-release
3B2's several years ago.  We cursed the RJ45's on them then for not being
standard RS-232 and then instantly standardized on them.
