Hello everyone,
I just moved into a new house so I'm very pleased with the network setup which is finally up to standards, but I have a problem. In every room, there is an RJ45 (ethernet) socket and all these sockets lead to the technical room through conduits. I need to set up my Freebox Server in this room with a switch... Now my problem is: I'm not going to put my landline phone (which needs to be connected to my box via RJ11) in the technical room for practical and aesthetic reasons...
I wanted to know how I could detach my landline phone from my Freebox?
Can I connect it to the Freebox Player which would be in the living room?
Can I connect it to an RJ45 socket?
Thanks in advance!

Hello,
if you have RJ45 sockets in all the rooms you connect patch cables between your box and your patch panel, including the telephone socket.
The principle is there
Note: a male RJ11 can be connected without any problem to a female RJ45
Very difficult to catch a black cat in a dark room.
Especially when it's not there...

What is the difficulty of putting a telephone cable into the telephone socket of the box, connecting the other end to the corresponding patch panel in the room where the phone will be installed, and then connecting the phone to the corresponding wall socket in the room?
Then we connect the output sockets of the box with patch cords to the other patch panels.
We can then connect a TV decoder in one room and in others PCs and, if needed, a switch to distribute to other devices.

Okay, thank you very much. Does it cause a problem if the cable that connects the patch panel to the box is a cable?
Hello,
the cable coming out of the box is generally an RJ11 cable, it works very well in a wall or patch panel RJ45, based on this principle:

and ... There you go!

It's even more precise, but I'm not planning to open the cores to deal with the wiring... Could I have retrieved the cables from the core to connect them directly to the RJ11 cables?
Am I not connecting them to the ground? ???? Connect what to the ground?
You need to disconnect all the cables that may be in place between the output of the main filter and the patch panels...
These cables are usually a "spider" intended to distribute the phone line.
Please send us a photo of your patch panel (including DTI and main filter)

Hi,
he just needs an RJ11 cable between the box and the patch panel, no need to distribute it everywhere, I think.
or at the limit this if it reassures him ....

Hi Bru
Yes... a simple telephone cable between the box and the master filter or DTI is enough.
But there must currently be a "spider" in place... and that's what needs to be removed.

no, not that,
I’m talking about the phone line output from the Freebox and the patch panel.
I assume that the ADSL from the box is already connected to the line, DTI or main filter.
Yes,
it has to be removed, of course, also to broadcast the Ethernet network.
In the diagram you posted at the top, it’s not there...

Hello,
Don't worry, I won't dismantle anything until I have confirmation, but if I want to connect the cable coming out of the wall (I'll remove the wall socket) and connect it (I don't know how yet) directly to the RJ11 cable. So I was wondering what I should do with the wires I won't be using anymore... maybe put them on the ground?
