Correct.
The best reference I have found on line, though by no means complete, 
and I have not checked it completely for accuracy, is here:

http://www.arcelect.com/RJ_Jack_Glossary.htm

Mentioned is the RJ-71 which is SIMILAR to what I was referencing in my 
earlier posting, and perhaps one with built in contacts was never built
They also do not specify in all cases the keyed/unkeyed plug, though 
these days the keyed plug is seldom seen in use.
