1.8.2.1 Connecting a regular single-line telephone
This is the basic, simple set-up. All functionality including transferring calls,
forwarding calls and voicemail, is handled by the unit. Even the most basic
of phones, once connected, will inherit these functions.
Figure 16: Single-line telephone
Each phone is connected to a single
extension. A call transferred to
extension 111 will ring the phone
connected on jack E1. A call
transferred to extension 112 will ring
the phone on jack E2 and so on.
1.8.2.2 Connecting a regular dual-line telephone
Most dual-line phones have separate plug-ins for two incoming telephone
lines (Line 1 and Line 2). If your dual-line telephone does not have separate
plug-ins, you can use a Line 1/Line 2 splitter to separate the two lines as
shown in
Figures 17
and
18
.
You can plug the dual-line phone into the TalkSwitch unit using one or two
extension jacks.
Figure 17
below shows a dual-line phone using one jack.
Figure 18
on page 17 shows a dual-line telephone plugged into the unit
using two jacks.

extension jack. Calls on extension 111

Figure 18: Dual-line telephone on two jacks
TalkSwitch extensions 111 and 112 are
connected to a dual-line phone using
two extension jacks. Calls on extension
