What cable is neded to connect landline phone to Sky hub

I just had full Fibre fitted. The engineer has now left. In connecting the landline to the new hub the port recommended is a different connector than that used on a phone line (rj11?). I therefore need to buy a new cable with rj11 one end and a narrower male connector on the other but I don't know what type it is.

I guess I could also buy an adaptor.

That's the solution thanks. I couldn't see the obvious because the port is turned through 90 degrees on the hub. Doh!

Typically that would be RJ11 at the handset and a 'BT jack' (British Standard 6312 431A)  plug at the router.
