Converting telephone wall outlets
There are three ways to c onvert to an RJ11 jack. Th e first two ways
may require assistance from the telephone company. You can
change the wall outlets from one RJ14 jack to two RJ11 jacks. Or,
you can have an RJ11 wall o utlet installed and slave or jump one of
the phone numbers to it.
The third way is the easiest: Buy a triplex adapter. You can plug a
triplex adapter into an RJ14 outlet. It separates the wires into two
separate RJ11 jacks (Line 1, Line 2) and a third RJ14 jack (Lines 1
and 2). If your machin e is on Line 1, plug the ma chine into L1 of the
triplex adapter. If y our machine is on L ine 2, plug it into L 2 of the triple
adapter.
