RE: Telephone Over Cat5



You could, not neat, and not very intuitive for the next occupier either!!!

Why not wire to your patch panel using an extension kit? and then cut the
BT
socket off and wire this into your patch panel?

e.g.

http://www.tlc-direct.co.uk/Main_Index/Telephones_and_Accessories_Index/Tele
phone_Accessories_1/index.html

Still messy though, Its dead easy to wire the cabling into the rear of the
BT master socket, as that's what its for - If you are punching cables on
your patch panel you may as well punch the cables on your BT master socket
too. - The BT master socket is in two pieces, the connection in from BT and
a removable face plate, you are allowed to connect onto the rear of the
faceplate, and when you remove this faceplate you'll see that it
disconnects
the household circuits from BTs connection, so that you can work on them

Hi

To save messing about with the back of the BT socket could I used
another of the TLC inserts and then wire into it with a cable with BT
plug to BT plug?

Regards

>What is the best way to do the interface between CAT5 and the BT master
socket

Wire the cable into the back of the faceplate. You need to connect 3-4
of the cables Normally 2,3,4,5 on the bt socket. (You can get away with
less, but I find it easier to remember if I connect all 4!!)

>and also CAT5 and a telephone will the inserts from TLC do?

Yeap, you only need to use the extension ones, or you could use ordinary
extension sockets (if you don't think you'll change them from voice).
