Is this an actual phone, that plugs into the phone line or is this just an additional handset?

The base must be connected to a phone line and to a 120vac power outlet. The handset is cordless.

Base plugs into phone line. Great phone, larger numbers than most cordless phones.

No, this is a standard landline, so it is powered by the cord like any regular landline. This is the advantage over other phones with bases that are plugged in (and turn off when the power goes out).

This handset has only one line. I don't know if it would receive one of the two lines you already have, but I wouldn't count on it.

This is an extension charging base, and does not connect to the phone line. You have to have a base unit (several exist, with or without answering machines) and then can have up to 6 handsets (including the base station)

The base unit plugs into an electrical outlet and also plugs into the telephone outlet on your wall. The extra handsets (I have 3) each plug into an electrical outlet. You only need 1 phone jack. (for the base unit) The extra handsets do not need a phone jack (only an electrical plug)

it has a port on side where you connect phone line like on a traditional phone.so you probably have to have a landline

No, it is just a telephone. It was connected to my landline at first. Now it is connected to my FIOS service.

No, it only comes with the one line in and no other port for an extension phone. It is a great phone and if you like a good speaker phone with plenty of power, this works great. The only think missing is a back light for the display. Other than that, I give this a 4 1/2 stars out of 5.

It is a system of phones with one main base that is hooked to the phone line and it has a portible phone in that base. then additional phones do not have to have a phone line attached to them. They only have to have an electical outlet. It is like an intercom system and either phone then can page any other ones. It is great for not having to have phone jacks everywhere and it is also a great way to find a misplaced one. The set comes with two or more phones. Additional phones can be added later if they are are same brand etc. and are called "expandable" phones. I purchased a 4 phone system. When one of those 4 stopped working, I purchased one replacement.

It is a land line that plugs into the wall jack, but there is a backup battery for the digital display. It does not plug into a power outlet.

the second handset <and any others you buy> are wireless... ONLY the base needs to be plugged into a phone jack.

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.

Yes, the handset has a its own ringer. It's been several years and I'm still pleased with the phone. The main base is not portable...as the additional hand held phones....Nora
