Is there a DOCIS 3.1 model that includes a RJ11 phone jack

Is there a DOCIS 3.1 model that includes a R11 phone jack. If not, what kind of experience does anyone have using the RJ45 to RJ11 adapter and connecting through the router. I'm getting ready to purchase NETGEAR CM1000 & the Nighthawk X10

       Why would a cable-TV network modem have a telephone connector?

       Is there some actual problem which you are trying to solve, or some
    actual requirement what you are trying to meet?  

       It might help if you started at the beginning, and explained what
    you're actually trying to do, rather than asking how to implement some
    "solution" to whatever problem you think that you have.

       I certainly have none.  I have no idea why you'd want to do anything
    with some (unspecified) kind of "the RJ45 to RJ11 adapter".

    there is no d3.1 Retail eMTA out there.

     

    Best is to buy CM1000 + NightHawk Router + 3rd Party Phone (such as ooma).
