1.4.1 Attaching telephone lines to TalkSwitch line jacks
You can connect your telephone lines from the wall jack(s) to the TalkSwitch Line jacks with the phone cables provided. Take note of which telephone line is connected to which Line Jack on TalkSwitch - this information will be used in the configuration section. In order to minimize disruption to your business, you may want to configure TalkSwitch first before connecting it to your lines and phones.
We recommend that you connect surge protectors between TalkSwitch and your telephone lines to protect against lightning damage.
1.4.2 Attaching phones to TalkSwitch extension jacks
You can connect any analog device (regular telephone, cordless phone, fax machine, answering machine, modem) to TalkSwitch's extension jacks. Multiple devices can be connected to each extension jack by ‘chaining’ them together or using a line splitter.
