What you need is the PHONENET hardware.
These are little boxes with a short cable and a mini-DIN connector on one
side and two western connectors for the connection to the phone line.
PhoneNet is bit slower than LocalTalk but it transmits Appletalk packages.
Regarding terminations: you can simply make them yourself, provided you have
a tool for crimping the western plugs. All you need is a resistor (sorry, I
do not remember the value) that you crimp to the contacts of the western
plug.
Cheers
