We had thousands of those, wired for usoc on the wallplate side, a splitter to send 2 pairs to two station cables with usoc on one and 568b on the station end. We had this for our entire cat-3 plant, and some of the early cat-5 (non-e) terminated on 110 blocks. I don't miss that any more than I miss faculty putting 10base2 on rg-59.
