So I broke my rj 12 cable for my Fanatec racing wheel and need to order a replacement. I was told it was an Rj12 but I see there is a reverse variant. I'm not sure what one is what I need, does anyone know from the included picture below? (this is the broken cable)

I'm guessing this is straight though since from what I can tell on reverse there is a twist in the line so both ends don't match up like this but wanna be sure.

yeah stumbled into this (at least the top and bottom ones) which made me think I figured it out but wanted to double check since I have spent a massive amount of money over the last month, didn't wanna waste any.
