BEFORE YOU BEGIN
PARTS CHECKLIST
Your package should contain the ollowing items:
MODULAR JACK REQUIREMENTS
A modular jack USOC: RJ11C or a RJ14C is required.
Installation o this telephone in locations with 4-prong jacks
or with hard-wired outlets requires additional converters (not
included). The dealer rom whom you purchased the system,
or a telephone supply store, can advise you regarding the
proper converter.
INSTALLATION OPTIONS
Although you can use your 2-line business phone with a single phone line,
it is designed with a 2-line system in mind. The ollowing diagrams show
two possible systems:
TWO LINES ON ASINGLE MODULAR
JACK
The most common two-line phone system uses
a single RJ14 modular jack which contains both
phone lines.
TWO LINES ON SEPARATE MODULAR
JACKS
It is possible that each line has its own
RJ11 modular jack, which means that
you will need a 2-line coupler in order
to use both lines on this phone. Check
with your local phone dealer to get a
two-line coupler.
