Any suggestions/products on how 1 - 4 phone lines can be setup in a structured wiring manner. I have not seen any products and the only thing I can think of is a 66 block wired so that each location can tap a "bus" created by running a pair of wires down the center of the 66 block

thanks in advance
Ricardo

Or you can use 110 blocks, either way, the end result is ussualy the same.

There are a lot of different items out there for structured phone use. Just about every company who does structured wiring has some sort of phone module or phone interface. For a simple phone module, try ON-Q's 1X11 phone interface. It will give you up to 4 incoming lines distributed to up to 11 locations with security interface and surge supression in a simple 110 punchdown.

We typically use an Open House or OnQ 110 module then wire as many RJ-11's as lines needed at any location. Example
Home Office needs lines 2 (office line} and 3 {fax/modem line)
Use a 3 port wallplate. Install 1st jack with line 2 on the primary terminals & line 1 on the secondary. (this gives them access to both the office # and the main home # IF he has a 2 line phone). On the 2nd RJ-11, install line 3 on the primary's and 4 on the secondary.
The last port on the plate would be for an RJ-45 used with a dedicated Cat 5 network cable. Using a different color jack (usually blue) helps avoid user confusion.
If you do not have a Structured cable enclosure, Home Depot carries little Leviton 10 port 110 blocks that can be fastened to plywood or just about anything else.
Hope this helps,
