How many phones can this unit power? I seek to plug this into my telco block thereby connecting it to all five (5) telephone extensions in my house.

we plug the vonage device output into the wall phone jack and it enables all the other house phone jack for use. so five phones id doable. this is not an option for people w/ dsl (like you), since it uses the phone line as input. we have cable and disconnected the input line from qwest on the outside of the house.

You need to be able to plug the base unit into a power outlet and a phone jack (land line). Once you've done that the unit can call cell phones or land lines in case of emergency. We have ours set to call 1 land line and 3 cell phones with no problems so far.

Not sure sir. I only have the one base with 5 phones included. I just plugged this extra on in and it synced to the main base and works all features just fine. I can check my voice mails and all with this one added to the 5 phone answering system I have. Hope this helped you!!!

Yes. Each base unit has to be plugged into a phone jack, but they can all be on the same line or number. We have three.

This is a splitter for a single telephone line where you can use two devices. If you connect two more splitters and connect them to the original splitter, you could then use four devices on one phone line.

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)

The way I hooked mine up, and it works great, is that I disconnected the incoming service line outside. Then ran a line from the Xlink to an open phone jack. Now the entire house (6 phones on two levels) is powered by the Xlink module. Works great.

Barb, as I understood this at the time of purchase, yes you could expand the unit to as many as you would like. I have had this phone for about a year, maybe longer, it works good and the answerer is reliable. Believe you would like it also. When you order just include the number needed.

If you had read your manual, it states clearly(and on the features listing on Amazon for at least one of the base units) that the base can only connect to 5 handsets.

I can use two at once but haven't tried to use all 5 at once. Two work just fine during a call. I'd suspect all 5 will as well but can't say with certainty.

From what I can tell each extended handset base needs to be plugged in for power but not into a wall jack. I hope that helps.

Up to the maximum that the particular base can handle. You will need to check the specs for that info. For example, the KX-TG7745S comes with 5 handsets and can handle 6; so, you can add 1.

You can always plug multiple items on one phone line. You can only use one at once. If you receive faxes, you just need to make sure only one is in answer mode.

Edited: you can assign any combination of 8 lines/extensions to ring the base or each of 6 handsets. There are also separate controls for "Grouping Handset/Handset selection for receiving calls", and "Handset and Line No. selection for making calls", so you can also assign different extensions for outgoing calls.

The Answer to this question is.....DEPENDS.....did you run a telephone cable to the other rooms? If yes, then the answer is Yes. If no, then the answer is no.It handle up to 4 incoming lines then you may distribute as you see fit using the other 6 ports.

I don't see why not.... I don't know how many digits your telephone #'s are if you wanted to use the automatic call back feature. This alarm can store 5 different telephone #'s that are up to 8 digits long.Everything is wireless, you can use it practically anywhere you've got electricity.I plan on purchasing another one for our weekend cabin and using a small battery backup system that can recharge via a single LV Solar Panel.
