Getting Connected
Setting Up for PBX Phone Systems
Setup for use with PBX phone systems is the same as for analog telephones with
one exception. Some PBX telephones have a simulated analog line extension
jack called a data / modem port. Instead of connecting the <Phone Line> jack
of the Inline Patch to a wall jack, you will connect to the data / modem jack on
your PBX phone. You will still need a regular analog telephone connected to
the <Phone> jack of the Inline Patch. When dialing out you will need to take
the necessary steps to get a direct connection to the main analog phone line
(example: dialing 9 + 1 + phone number). You will not physically use your PBX
phone while operating the Inline Patch. It simply acts as your connection to the
telephone line. Dialing, speaking, etc. will be done through the separate analog
telephone.

Note: Connecting the Inline Patch directly to a multi-line, PBX or ISDN phone system wall
jack could irreversibly damage the unit.
