Does anyone know if the older Atlas Signal Control Boards (mine is marked 2003 ATLAS O, LLC) can be used with the Atlas Interlock Control Module 70000047?

I have some G-Type signals ( Exactly like the ones in this episode of Erics Trains https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6bUWymTNBHo )  id like to use with a K&R Custom Signal double head to protect a switch (exactly like the one in this episode of Jasons Trains https://youtu.be/lSaZHA1k-QU ).  Im guessing for the K&R signal i'll need to purchase 2 Atlas Universal SCBs.

I really like the quality and durability (mostly metal with a scale appearance) of the Atlas signals.  My Dad and I signalized his entire layout a couple of years ago using Atlas and Custom Signals products (very similar to atlas),  Huge effort with over 50 heads, but in the end outstanding results in regards to appearance and operation.  My favorite feature on his layout.  With Custom Signals gone, I have folks around me in Kansas looking for options from Atlas on double and tripled headed signals as well.  

I want to incorporate a new Atlas Interlocking module into an existing Custom Signals plan that uses Custom Signals TSC 3 boards. I received the new interlocking module and the rj 12  plug connectors do not fit into the new board. Does the new board require rj 45 connectors? If they do how do I make a cable which will allow me to have an rj 12 connector on one end and an rj 45 connector on the other end and have it make a working connection

Quick update. It is an rj 12 modular connector. I was doing my test fitting with an uncripmpted connector. I didn't know that crimping deforms the connector itself. Once I did the test fit with a crimped connector it fit perfectly. This is why you should never let an electronics rookie such as myself near a circuit board.
