The socket at the rear of the Hub is a standard telephone socket so you need a cable which terminates in a standard telephone plug.

 

If the cable's not long enough you can use a standard telephone extension cable of suitable length.

RJ11 at the phone to UK phone jack (British Standard 6312 431A plug) on the Hub.

 

The purple RJ11 on a Sky Broadband Hub is for incoming ADSL/FTTC broadband, not a handset, and the black RJ11 is for handsets in Republic of Ireland and Italy rather than the UK.
