∙ Keep the base and handset away from sources of electrical noise such as motors or fluorescent lighting.
∙ Be sure there is sufficient space to fully extend the base antenna.
∙ The base can be placed on a desk or tabletop or mounted on a standard AT&T or GTE wall plate.

Telephone Line Outlets
There are two types of phone outlets:
▼Modular Jack
Most phone equipment available now uses modular jacks. Phone cords are fitted with a molded plastic connector which plugs into this type of jack. If you do not have modular phone jacks, contact your local telephone company for information about their installation.
▼Hardwired Jack
Some equipment is wired directly to a phone jack, and these types of installations require a modular jack converter. This type of installation is not difficult; however, you should contact your local telephone dealer or a telephone supply store for advice about the proper adapter or converter for your particular situation.
