Internet Phone Systems

If you are building a house, you should not just consider the floor plan or the electrical wirings but also the wire phone systems. This is true especially when you have a need for multiple lines or various intercom connections in the house. If you are moving in to a new house and there are no previous home phone systems installed, you can have one installed.

Here is a step by step guide on how you can do this:

Step 1: Since you are not using wireless devices, you have to plant the wirings carefully. Purchase a reliable home phone structure and then sketch your home and plan the wirings. It should be flexible enough for you to do modifications in the future such as connecting to the internet or installing Voice over Internet Protocol phone systems.

Step 2: Once you have already purchase your phone kit, choose the right place to put the main station or the control unit. If you are using a multi line system, this is a part and parcel of such technology. It should not take much at all. Place it to where you will mostly likely spend most of your business transactions and works.

Step 3: Make sure you have mapped up the wirings of the phone jacks and the extension telephones. For every phone, get a telephone cable and make sure they can all connect easily to the control unit.

Step 4: Getting a boring tool and then drill a small hole at the wall at the back of the main base station. Practice the techniques of drilling holes on the wall such as avoiding studs. There are actually devices that will help you find the studs. Insert the string until it reaches the other side of the hole. Now lace one end of the string to one end of the cable. Afterwards, give the string a little tug so you can finally see the cable. Now you can remove the string and then attach the cable to the central control unit.

Step 5: Using the same boring tool, make holes on the floor. This is where you are going to put your phone jack. After this, you can now secure the phone jacks. If you are using a new telephone system, it still has plastic coating over it so you might want to remove it before hooking it up.

Step 6: You might also want to put nail plates just to camouflage the phone jacks.
