Technically it's not really an RJ45, it's a USOC-8 8P8C jack wired for
Ethernet. Wired differently the jack becomes an RJ31X, RJ38X, RJ41S ...
RJ61X. I used the RJ31X & RJ38X extensively when I was working on
security systems.
But if you call it an RJ45 the guys at Best Buy/Staples/Office Depot
will know what you're talking about.

I can never remember which is which, I did a google search and the images that
showed up showed th 8 pin.

you may find it a PITA to coil and uncoil when you need to use it.
Realistically, I'd just use my pre-made patch cables, rather than
making
my own. It seems that all I'm finding right now are the 1m extension
cables anyways, but they're only about $17.
So, I just need to find good female RJ11 jacks that would work for
this
application.
I think you want RJ-45; RJ-11 is the little 4 pin telephone connector.
