Phone Service
If you get phone service with your data service, you need the following:
•
A POTS splitter, or micro filter may be required; check with your service provider
•
RJ-11 phone jacks for phone service
The POTS splitter is a device that separates data transmission from phone service. After
installing the POTS splitter, connect separate jacks for data from your session and for phone
service. Ensure that your service provider indicates which jacks are for data and which jacks are
for phone service.
