USES OF YOUR NIU
Connecting equipment directly to the NIU
You can connect devices directly to the NIU, through existing premises
telephone wiring, or with jacks to equipment in other rooms. The NIU has
two telephone jacks to connect multiple touchtone telephones approved for
home use. Multiple devices (touchtone telephones, fax machine, etc.) can
be connected, to a maximum sum of 5 REN B. Check the REN rating of your
equipment to determine how many devices you can connect. The REN rating
is typically located on the bottom of the phone or other device.
NOTE
The NIU does not support calls from a rotary or pulse dialing telephone. Refer
to your touchtone telephone’s user guide to set it to “tone” instead of
“pulse.”
Before connecting any fax or modem devices to the NIU, check with your
service provider to be sure that these services are available.
Connecting a single phone
1. Remove the connector panel cover
on the NIU by pressing down on
the arrows and sliding the cover
away from the unit.
2. Plug a touchtone phone connector
into one of the telephone jacks on
the NIU. Plug the other end of the
connector into your touchtone
telephone.
