Appendix A Reference
easiest way to do this is to purchase a pair of two-line modular adapters, a line-
cord coupler, and some short lengths of phone cable, available at any telephone
supply retailer.
Note:Do not purchase a 1-line modular adapter or line splitter.
Installing either of these items results in two phone jacks on
Line 1, and no access to Line 2.
1. Disconnect the telephone from the two-line phone jack.
2. Install one of the two-line modular adapters (modular adapter #1) in the
phone jack
3. If Qwest DSL is on Line 1, install the phone filter in the Line 1 jack of modu-
lar adapter #1.
4. Install a short length of phone cable between the phone filter and the Line 1
jack of the other two-line modular adapter (modular adapter #2).
5. Install a short length of phone cable between the Line 2 jacks of modular
adapters #1 and #2.
6. Connect the line-cord coupler to 2-line modular adapter #2.
7. Install a short length of phone cable between the line-cord coupler and the
telephone.
If Qwest DSL is on Line 2, use the same procedure, but install the phone filter on
Line 2.
Security Alarm System
If your home or business has an alarm system and Qwest DSL shares the same
phone line, you have special wiring needs. If you did not order a technician install
at the time of sale, please contact Qwest Sales as soon as possible to order and
schedule your installation.
If you security alarm is wired incorrectly, it may not be able to make a notification
call when the alarm is triggered. Professional wiring is required to insure interoper-
ability. Do not attempt the installtion yourself. Qwest strongly recommends that
you contact your security organization for more information about your security
alarm system before you attempt to install Qwest DSL. Qwest also strongly recom-
mends that you contact your security organization after installing Qwest DSL to
have them conduct a test of your alarm system.
