3.2.1 Connecting Phones to the Thomson Gateway
Procedure
Use a phone cable with RJ-11 connectors to:
1 Wire the green Thomson Gateway Phone port(s) to your phone(s) or fax.
2 If your Thomson Gateway has a black port labelled "PSTN", you must connect this port to the telephone
output of your DSL splitter to allow analogue phone calls with the same telephone set that you use for
VoIP calls.
If this is not the case, no additional connections are needed.
Emergency calls
If the device is not powered, the Thomson Gateway will automatically select the analogue signal (if
connected). So you still will be able to make emergency calls.
This is only required if you still want to make phone calls using the analogue telephone line.
Be aware that, if the PSTN port (if provided) is not wired to your telephone wall outlet or
distributed filter, emergency calls are not always possible!
As distributed filters are country-specific, you cannot use the device everywhere.
