Ways of
parallel-connecting
to telephone lines, when end user devices (telephones or
facsimile machines) need to be in operation, are shown in fig.26,
3D and 3E.
The
3D
option is used when the telephone line is fitted with a
singular
RJ11 socket. An RJ11
splitter (
) are to be used in this case, for connecting the main unit.
The
3E
option is used, when telephone line is fitted with a
double
RJ11 socket. In this case,
the Main Unit is connected to one of the two socket inlets through a special cable (
), while
a telephone or facsimile machine is connected to the other through a standard cable.
