Default Old, wall rotary phone


"Irene" wrote in message
Will the rotary phone wiring work for a modern push button phone or is new
wiring in order? Also, what kind of phone wiring connector(s) is/are
required or needed in order for me to install a wall-mounted push button
phone in the kitchen?


The wires are the same, but the plug, if any, may differ. There are four
wires. Connect the wires to the RJ-45 wall mount jack that is available at
any hardware, home store, etc., then attach the phone to the mount.

That old rotary phone is coming back in style. There is a demand as people
are restoring older homes and want the old phones in the colors to match the
70's decor.
