RJ-11 CROSS ADAPTOR
(Line 1 to Line 2 Bypass Adapter)
If the first line of the phone line is live and has power, you may still be able to use the terminal through
your home phone wiring by using the RJ-11 cross adapter. Line 1 uses the middle two pins on the RJ-
11 cable. Line 2 uses the outer two pins on the RJ-11 connector.
IMPORTANT NOTE
Some house wirings may only have line 1. Some houses may have both line 1 and line 2
wires live. In such cases, please do not connect the terminal to your house wall jack.
Instead, please consider using multi-handset cordless phone. Connect the base of the
cordless phone directly to the terminal using RJ-11 cable.
1. Before connecting the terminal, test the line 2 in your house by plugging the cross adapter into the
wall jack. Then plug the Wall Jack Tester into the back of the cross adapter. If the LED is lit, line
2 is also live.
2. If the line 2 is not live, connect one of the cross connector between the terminal and wall-jack. This
will convert the terminal output to line 2 of the in-wall wiring.
3. Connect another cross connector between another wall jack and corded/cordless phone in another
room. Check if there is dial tone or busy tone on the line.
4. If no tone is heard, please check if the terminal is turned on properly. If the problem persists, it
may be possible that the home wiring line 2 is not available.
NOTE: The default packaging may or may not include the cross adaptors. Cross adapter may be
called a “2-Line Splitter” and should be readily available at local electronic or office supply
stores.
