Connections for Phone Jack Wiring
[ad#block]Telephone Wiring: If I have one 22/4 wire from the D-Mark and I need to wire three phone jacks with it, and I need a keypad spliced between the second and third phone jacks, and there is a solid concrete wall blocking the D-Mark from the area where I need the phone line, how can I get proper voltage to my three phone jacks and still allow a keypad to be spliced in between the second and third jacks?
Thank you for your assistance.
