Does anyone make RJ45 line filters for DSL?

[moid]

I have ordered DSL, and plan on putting the filters on my phone lines, including the sattelite tv lines and the alarm system dialer. The alarm system has an RJ45 connector block directly wired to the phone line. Does anyone know if (or who) makes a RJ45 DSL filter I can put in line with it, or do I have to rewire with a standard phone jack in line, than the filter, back to the RJ45 box. Or, possibly, do they make a standard phone jack to RJ45 adaptor? Thanks!

I had the same type of wiring for my security system... I made it easier (and faster) for myself and called the phone techs in to put the line splitter outside the house. My connection rate went from 640/256 to 1450/256. Well worth the 4 hours it took them to install it.

Agamar is right, an outside filter is much better. Before, I had microfilters at each phone and I still got a bunch of static and garbage noise. Then they came and put a filter on the outside and the noise went away and my speed jumped tremendously. It started at 200/100 and went to 700/120. Not as fast as Agamer's connection, but still better than before.

How much do those outside filters cost and where can I get them?

You have to ask your DSL company to do it. I don't think you can do it yourself. Tell them your microfilters are causing problems (noise, hiss, slow speeds) and a tech will come over. The techs know about the outside filters, the phone customer serice know practically nothing about DSL. Seriously. The tech are truly the ones with the power to make or break your DSL.
