Hello,
we only need to respect the pairs and wire them the same at both ends (straight cable)
the tradition is:
pair 1 white/gray on 4/5
pair 2 yellow/orange on 3/6
pair 3 blue/colorless or pink on 1/2
pair 4 brown/purple on 7/8

another convention:

and also:

however,
depending on the cable used your speed may have to be limited to 10Mbit/s since the PTT 278 (cat3) does not allow more, while the PTT298 allows 100 in principle.
and ... There you go!

Thank you very much!
I'm super happy, reusing an old phone cable.
I'm getting 1000 Mbps on a 298 PTT cable! :-)
