Connecting your phone jacks

You can link the Ooma Telo to all the phone jacks in your home, allowing you to 
connect phones in multiple rooms.

NOTE: 

The 

PHONE 

port on the back of your Ooma Telo is not designed or certified 

for connecting to your phone company’s wiring, whether through the phone 
jacks in your home or otherwise. In order to avoid an increased risk of fire and/or 
electrical shock, you must first completely and physically disconnect the telephone 
company’s wiring outside of your house from the phone wiring that is inside of  
your house, before you plug your Ooma Telo into your phone jacks. Please visit 

www.ooma.com/homedistribution

 before you proceed with connecting your  

Ooma Telo to your phone jacks in this manner.
