I think that's the right term anyway, I'm intending to use VoIP and use the ethernet already in the building as a phone line, in order to do this I presume I only need an adapter either end of the ethernet is order to get the appropriate BT socket to plug a phone in to?

What are you using as a voip phone/adapter?

You can get adapters than convert standard phone sockets to rj45, however if you are using a Voip adapter such as the pap2 and a standard phone then you need a special adapter for that to, otherwise the ring function tends not to work

So where will the vigor router be? Will it be some where else in the building? In which case just use the adapters and cat5 to patch the phone to the draytek. You will also need to convert the rj45 at the draytek end with an rj45 to rj11 adapter as the draytek takes the american style plugs from memory.

Can you draw a diagram of how you want to wire it?

Thanks

The room is a square, in one corner all the cat5 terminates, that's where the router will sit, I wish to utilise some of the cat5 as pots to 2 sockets on the other side of the room.

All the cables are currently bedded into the wall and they're all patch.

Doesn't the draytek require a ring capacitor between it and the telephone socket?
 
So I would need a male BT to male BT cable to connect it to the pabx adapter?

Simplest way is to buy a standard ADSL cable (3m RJ11 to RJ11, for a fiver). This plugs into a RJ11 VOIP port and your RJ45 ethernet socket. Other end has your RJ11/BT adapter that comes with the router plugged into the RJ45 socket. Phone plugs into BT socket of adapter.
