I just used a dual connector that you plug a phone into and plug the voice identifier into the other jack. Available at Radio Shack.

No, it has 2 RJ45 telephone jacks and needs to be in line between a wall phone jack and the telephone base ( or a corded phone). It's also battery powered.

Plugs into the cordless handsets, don't know if there is a place to plug it in to the actual base station.

You cannot plug anything into the base unit except a connection to your router (Internet) and a connection to your landline. You cannot connect handsets into the base. The base acts as a wireless transmitter/receiver with the cordless handset that comes with the base.I have had this Skype VOIP phone for over a month now, and I *highly* recommend it. It works great! Flawlessly! So nice to carry Skype around the house with me and make and answer calls with my computer turned off all day. Very convenient.

The cordless bases are nothing more than chargers for the handsets. All you need is a 2-pronged outlet.

I can answer since I have done this. You would need a phone wall bracket, or, if you are "handy", you can use two strategically placed pancake screws vertically on which you hang the phone. It's hard getting pancake screws (flat, disk-shaped heads) and using other types can lead to instability. However, I do not recommend using this phone on the wall as the design of the handset means that it often falls off unless carefully replaced. Even brushing against it can lead to the handset falling off. Choose another phone.

I plug it into an AT&T cordless phone. Works very well. I make phone calls for my job from home.

I installed it on my cordless by installing it next to the cordless base. From wall jack to ringer and from ringer to phone base. It is loud, but not portable like cordless phone so light only visible near base.

John B: there is no cord to the wall; it's meant to be wall-mounted and thus has a sliding captive jack. The only cord is the handset cord, and that of course is replaceable.

Yes, the larger phone base will mount on a wall phone jack. You also need an electric outlet nearby to plug the phone into for it to work. The phone works well.

No, since it attaches between the base of a regular phone and the handset, there is no way to attach it for use on a cordless phone

There should be no problem, but if your plug from the phone is wide you will need to put an extension the surge protector, because is close to the wall.

We have a panasonic cordless phone with one base unit and four hand sets. Mine is between the wall jack and the main base unit. It should close to a wall plug as well.

The piece in the photo is a handset in the home base. You only need one of these. The secondary handsets for other rooms are much smaller and are only chargers/holders for the handset. You only need one home base, it's the one that plugs into your phone service. The second, third...whatever do not plug into your house wiring, only to an electrical outlet for recharging. I hope that helped answer the question. The longer I have this phone the more I am liking it. I have the main home base unit, as shown in my living room and the other handsets with their chargers in bedrooms. On my nightstand I used double sided tape to mount the charger to keep it exactly where I place it. That worked perfectly. The piece in the photo is a handset in the home base.

I have not had trouble with cordless phones, but you must have land line not satelite phone hook up.you also need power to the ringer

I have this phone. The handset has a standard plug on both it and at the phone, so you can simply plug your headset into the phone receptacle instead of using the handset cord.

That confused me as well! The handsets are cordless, but the bases have to be plugged in. Works great!

Hi Debra. Yes, you certainly can. You need to remove a triangular shaped attachment in the back. It will stick out the wall about 3 1/4" with the handset.It has good range. In the case the electrical supply fails and when it gets back on but the screen is blank, you need to unplug the phone line and the electrical line for about 1 hour. When you plug them back, it will work fine. Best regards, Amnon Vadasz F., Ph.D., P.E. (San Antonio de Los Altos, Venezuela)
