A pedestal cord it the cord that goes between the telephone and the wall.

I said: "no connection to TELCO is required to connect two modems
together", modems do NOT use the talk current that the telephone exchange
supplies. (about 6 volts off hook)
I said: "a conventional cord will work" by saying the specific cord
to use, not the "handset cord", but the "pedestal cord". A pedestal
cord is what I and others call the correct cord to connect two modems
together.
