Re: Installation guides

there is no jack, and the rotary phone is mounted against the wall. Do you know what a rotary phone is?

the rotary phone again has no connectors at the end. It goes straight into a jack, i guess it's a modular one I am not a pots person so i don't know.

Like I said earlier it is hardwired in the phone set, if you take the cover off the wall phone you should see the IW wired to terminals T,R,G which is TIP, Ring and ground. SATASI

Someone posted i should have a splitter installed, but i don't know how feasible it is as to the cost and time to install. If it's such a hassle i should just stick with my cable.

First, you have to get a modular rj11, second, you have to make a short modular cable on one end and open face on the other end so you can hardwire the open face end into the phone....once all that is done just put your filter in the modular jack and plug the cable you made for the phone in the phone side of the filter.

I was going to do that in the first place, i just needed some information as if it is going to work or not. So basically, u want me to crimp on a rj11 connector at the end of the rotary phone and then have that plug into the microfilter than stick the microfilter into the jack?
