I am looking for a way to have a land line where the is no connection without running wires.?

Question

In our office which used to be a house is very old and there are not telephone lines in some areas where needed. I have seen on tv adapters the you can plug into an outlet and the plug a phone line into it. I need something like that I just don't know where to look or what they are called.

Answer 1

you can do anything with enough money. You can spend several thousand dollars for a radio system that will do what you want.

For the tv adapters that plug into the wall outlet, you must be on the same side of the distrubution transformer. I do not think that will be the case if you are trying to go a distance.

The closest possibility would be a cordless phone with the base unit mounted very high in the air, you might get a 1/4 mile.

Answer 2

What you are looking for is "Powerline Phone Adapters".

Answer 3

If you've got a fax, credit card machine, or plan on getting DSL, have the local phone company run a new line. They can run 4 or 6 pair cable to accomodate all your numbers on 1 wire. Should run as little as $65 or, with a little nudging, you can get it for free with new DSL service.

Answer 4

There are a few different ways to extend a telephone jack. The easiest in my opinion is to buy a cordless phone with multiple handsets. Only the base station needs to be plugged into a jack and you can connect an additional 3-4 cordless phones off of the one base station. As to extending the jack using an adapter you can go with dualjack or something similar.
