K3 RJ-45

Hi, I'm a new user (#4536) and am wondering what the RJ-45 connector is for
on the bottom of the front panel.

Look again ... it's not an RJ-45.

The connector is the smaller RJ-11 (six conductors) generally
associated with telephone systems.

Just in case anyone was wondering...

Industry nomenclature is now 8P8C (8 Pin 8 Conductor, nee RJ-45) and
6P6C, respectively.  Also, there are several variations on the theme.
