Thanks to all of you who tried to answer. Still, I'm wondering; has anyone here actually, personally, connected this wire to their two-line phone?

If I am not mistaken the alpha-numerical designation for a 2 line phone cord is RJ-11 6P4C. The 4C stands for 4 contacts which handles 2 lines. Green & red to line 1, black & yellow to line 2. I know this doesn't help you with this particular cord, but if you search for the aforementioned phone cord designation you should be able to find a cost effective cord. A better explanation can be found here: http://www.pcmag.com/encyclopedia/term/50559/rj-11. Hope this helps.

No, I use it to connect with people while I'm in computer room as cell phones are iffy here.

Yes, I install this wire from my router to base telephone. And working good. But I can't differentiate about big quality difference. But is ok .

Thanks for answer - and for person who asked question.We wondered what that wire was for also. It's not listed anywhere in the instruction manual.

> My daughter accidently plugged the usb cable into the phone line Huh? There's no way to force either of those 2 VERY different connector-types into the wrong jack. Send me a picture of ANY USB cable ever plugged into any phone line jack.

It plugs into the back of the phone so seems like multi lines could be accommodated. As long as 1 place to connect into the phone it should work. I think only a test will be a true answer. sorry- I only have 1 line on my phone I use.

Nope...............................An actual phone line must be connected !

I wish I could answer this question. Since there are many combinations of ports and settings on my equipment, I found myself plugging in and unplugging the wire several times. and before I was able to find the right combination I broke off one of the golden tines on the plug. Probably operator error rather than faulty plug, but sad, never the less.

I have this unit, and looked inside the jack. It is wired with 2 pins, so only one phone line.

There is probably a way to make it work, but we have a hardwire phone system and use that. I would call them and ask if there's a way to make it work.

NO! This is not like a phone splitter. Network cables have 8 wires in them but only 4 are used (and that means at both ends). This was done to plan for unknown network needs of the future. This does not allow you to share a network connection with two devices, it basically allows you to use the extra 4 wires. The problem is that the other end of the cable needs one to in order to use those same 4 wires. You need TWO of these to make a single cable work. I hope that makes sense...

Mine's plugged into the handset because I have 2 phone lines. IIRC you can plug it into the jack but it will only work for 1 line. The cord long enough that it's not a problem plugged into the handset.

hey thanks for the reply. Do I need to buy another cable to make the connection ?

I really can't answer that due to I never asked the other party on the other line,but I never had any complaints if that helps at all. Sorry I could not proving the information you are asking for exactly.

Hi J. Clegg,That certainly wasn't true in my case. I DO have an active Landline phone and linked my iPhone to the Panasonic. The only thing I noticed is that you cannot be on a call using the the cell phone and have a handset CLOSE BY and "on" and trying to also use that handset (like a 3-way call) because you get a loud speaker "feedback" noise. The two devices just need to be apart from each other....(more than 10 feet in my experience).

I do that, works fine I just plug in a splitter and this will work with the type you have. and yes I have a 2 line system hard wire. I just split so I can use the phone line too

Hi Angela:I can only give my own experience. The box where you plug the phone in has two Ethernet jacks. When I first set up the system I had one of the jacks connected to one of the Ethernet jacks on my Wifi router which is plugged into a modem that provides internet connection. This was not very reliable so I call Phonepower and they said to plug the phone box directly into the modem and plug the Wifi router into the phone box and this has worked pretty much without any problems. The phone box itself has no Wifi connection unless they have boxes that are different from what I have.Thanks, Jerry Hi Angela:I can only give my own experience.
