Connect a Telephone or Fax Machine

If you have a Cisco 827-4V router, you can connect an analog telephone or fax machine to your router.

Use the cables provided with these devices.

The gray PHONE 4, 3, 2, and 1 ports are RJ-11 connectors. If you are outside of North America, you

must buy and attach adapters that allow your telephones or faxes to be connected to these RJ-11

connectors. In some countries, these adapters need additional electronics to convert the telephones or

faxes to work properly with the router phone ports. For example, in the United Kingdom, you must buy

an adapter that also provides a master socket, which causes incoming calls to ring the connected devices.

For information on recommended master sockets, see the Cisco 827 Routers Hardware Installation

Guide.

Caution Do not connect the router telephone ports to the telephone wall jack. These ports are not meant for

direct connection to the public network. This connection can damage your router.
