Converting telephone wall outlets

There are three ways to convert to an RJ11 jack. The first two ways
may require assistance from the telephone company. You can
change the wall outlets from one RJ14 jack to two RJ11 jacks. Or,
you can have an RJ11 wall outlet installed and slave or jump one of
the phone numbers to it.

The third way is the easiest: Buy a triplex adapter. You can plug a
triplex adapter into an RJ14 outlet. It separates the wires into two
separate RJ11 jacks (Line 1, Line 2) and a third RJ14 jack (Lines 1
and 2). If the fax machine is on Line 1, plug the fax machine into L1
of the triplex adapter. If the fax machine is on Line 2, plug it into L2
of the triple adapter.
