Hang on - is this like the 755CX and 755CD, where you'd find a blanking
plate on some models by the power switch. Yes, the DSP may be located to
the right hand side, but the connectors were off to the left. If you
ordered the telephony option, you got, amongst the cables, a 1" long
part which sat inside the case, under the keyboard, on the upper left
and provided the external mini-DIN socket for the DSP telephony cables.
(Onto this you'd plug the short cable to the rectangular
country-specific box, out of which came the telephony cable that you'd
plug into the wall socket.)

My experiences were with European machines; I believe from some of the
machines I saw from the US that this internal 1" plug ended in an RJ-45
socket flush on the left hand side of the machine; us Europeans needed
seperate country kits to satisfy local legislation regarding telephony
equipment. Certainly, many models were sold without any of this
telephony kit as it was a seperately orderable option.
