Can the unit be plugged directly into the ph wall jack and not into a phone? The video was more confusing.

The unit has two phone jacks on the back. One is the wire coming from the wall into the unit. The other is from the unit into your phone. The unit receives the phone number that is calling. If it is one of your blocked numbers, the phone does not ring. If the number is not a blocked number, then the phone rings. If the call is the second case, you have the option of looking at the number on the screen, and pressing the blacklist button if you want to block that number from calling. The call will immediately stop if you do this.

The wire from the wall outlet goes into the call blocker. Another wire goes into the telephone. The unit comes with easy to understand instructions.

Yes. The connection sequence is from the wall jack to the call blocker, then to the phone. In most cases, our phone doesn't even ring when a blocked call is received.

If i understand your question, yes. You can plug the phone jack directly into the headset.

Use a quality cable, and I'd think the shorter the better. Neither of which would make this product superfluous though. What this does, is to short out the 2 data wires in it, so the phone thinks that it's plugged into the wall, and therefore attempts to draw maximum power. I tested this over and over with a Mediabridge adapter that has usb ports. The only way i could get the usb ports on it to draw the same amount of power as I'd get from plugging it into an outlet, was by using this device.

The phone plugs in the wall using a regular phone jack. But, you'll need to attach a separate included module to your home network. This module will talk to the phone using it's own WiFi signal to provide captioning. Once this is all hooked up, online registration needs to be done before it will begin to work. I managed to get all this done with my Dad doing the work while I, reading the online dicumentation, talked to him over a cell phone. I was in Virginia, he was in Florida.

It is preferable to plug the unit directly in to an outlet, but plugging it in to an extension cord should work OK. Do NOT however plug the unit into a power strip or the results will be unsatisfactory.

The unit has a micro USB that can be plugged into any typical wall adapter, auto adapter and laptop. Hope this helps!

Hi Juliana,I did some research and yes you probably could plug it into the wall jack--maybe for a little while, because of the battery life. But it also seems like you need to charge it on the base? I have not tried this myself. I keep mine on the base.

It appears not. Both the line cord from the wall and the stretch cord from the base to the handset are direct-wired into the unit. There is a good deal of discussion about this in the reviews associated with this item.

No it cannot be plugged into a regular phone line. It has to be plugged into a network switch for use in VoIP networks.

Yes, the phone line runs into the unit and there is a cord provided to plug the unit into the phone using standard modular jacks.

It depends on how you want to use it. If you have a multi-handset cordless phone, then you can plug the "master" or main unit into the Xlink, and all the others one will work. If you want to use this with regular corded phone, then yes you need to plug it into the wall jack, but don't forget to the disconnect your line from the outside at the Network Interface Device (located where the phone line comes in from the outside, usually in the basement).

It has a phone jack connection recessed about 1/2 inch from the surface of the back. If your wall connection point is a jack, then you should be able to connect the two with a short cord.

Yes, you can plug this into the amplifier, into the "phone" output connection.

No, it would be impractical if not impossible. You'd have to separate the wires from the plug that plugs into your telephone wall outlet and access the same two color coded wires outside where the phone line comes in to the house, splice on the length of wire to run to your outside speaker, then splice in to the 2 wires from the inside wall jack to go to your base unit. Much easier and tidier to just run new wires.

Yes you can power this through a wall socket. You need a USB adaptor (same as IPhone). Output is on back.

Its just a usb plug like what you would use on the wall, youll just plug your phone into it regardless of phone so no worries.

This unit plugs into the handset jack. As this is battery powered, it should not add any additional load to your phone, so even if your phone is POE, there should be no issue.
