actually, its not EXACTLY like the one on that URL - it has all the

The NTE5 ADSL filter you link to is a customised version that has had an
extra set of IDC connectors added to allow the unfiltered ADSL signal to
be wired out of the back of the unit as well. The standard BT version
only allows the unfiltered line to emerge on the socket on the front of
it, not be continued to the rest of the house wiring.

See http://www.solwise.co.uk/adsl_splitters.htm for pictures of the BT
style ADSL whole house filter and also piccies of a standard NTE5 kaster
socket.

the more i research, the more it sounds this used to be for the BT Home
Highway??

No, very different - that would be a NTE9 ISDN box. (about 6" by 9" with
four sockets on the front, two RJ45 and two BT telephone.

Yes, but the description he provided is exactly like the NTE5
frontplate used for home highway, remove the HH box and you cannot
simply reuse the NTE5 "digital access" frontplate and wire extensions
from there in the usual way. It needs the CA-A and CB-B terminals
linking.
