    Hello everyone,

    I searched and searched, but I couldn't find any information that would satisfy me ;-)

    Well, I have a gutted telephone socket (old type) - no clamps, etc., the cables are connected to the old socket, and from it come cables to 2 sockets of the new type.

    well, I would like to throw out all this crap and reinstall a new socket (of a new type), but the number of cables and the recombined way of connecting them exceeds my humanistic concept .....

    Can you tell me which wires I have to plug into which holes? ;-) in a new outlet...

    the new outlet simply has a series of places to plug in - maybe four or something, none of them marked.....

    phew...

    kiss,
    Stefanito

    Only two wires are connected. It doesn't matter how you connect them (interchange). If you have something to measure, there must be a voltage of about 50V (constant) in the line. Connect these wires to the socket so that the device is simply connected with a signal. Without seeing the socket you bought, they can't tell you anything else. Is that the colors. As a rule, it is red and green in the outlet.

    I don't have a meter unfortunately...

    it looks like:
    there are two independent collective wires - let's call them "cables" - each consists of several colored wires - let's call them "wires"

    2 wires were taken from each cable:
    once white + green
    and once white + blue ....

    two white ones come together on one connection of the old plug.

    green and blue converge on the second connection of the old plug.

    the other 2 connections of the old plug are not connected to anything...

    yeah. and how to connect a regular new plug to this set of 2 cables? connect the short wires to which inputs in the new plug?

    it has a series of 4 screw terminals, none is marked with anything...

    I'm guessing that you have more than one socket in your house, since there are two cables and the white and blue and green wires connect to each other. There is definitely a voltage of about 50V. Now, if you want to connect this new socket, first connect a telephone set to it and then try to connect to those points with some wires (two white and colored ones) and test connect to two terminals (holding the handset up) and see if you have a signal, if not then try on other terminals. If it is a typical old-type socket with a side RJ socket, then we connect the two screws on the right side. [/url]

    White with another color is usually always a pair, for example white with blue. There must be a power line on such a pair, as the previous colleague wrote.

    I will say this briefly
    In my region, TPSA installed sockets on a blue pair (blue and white twisted together) and Netia wanted them to be installed on an orange pair (orange and white twisted together). Individual case. It's best to take a meter or some voltage indicator in your hand and look for a pair with a voltage in the range of 40 to 60V

    If you have a new telephone socket, there is a socket for a telephone micro-plug. Usually four pins. In every telephone set (if someone has not converted), the two middle pins are the telephone line. This is also the case in the socket, if there are four wires, connect the middle ones to the wires disconnected from the old socket and it should be ok.

    Hello !!!!

    In this unfortunate country two internal veins are used, it will probably be green and red, in any case two internal in germany, in turn two external ...

    if you don't have a meter, you can check it in a simple but not very humane way, namely by briefly shorting each vein with a weak one until you get a "spark" from the short circuit. just don't play too much because firstly tpsa doesn't like it and secondly you can dial 0700... because that's how the so-called routing used to work, i.e. dialing a number and you'll pay a larger bill :D :D (unlikely, but it works and is possible)
    so if it sparks then those veins are the right ones. the rest, as the predecessors wrote, i.e. the rj11 plug must have these wires with voltage inside, 2-3 contacts

    let me tell you this, in the old-type socket, the wires were plugged in from the right side (top, bottom), if you had two white wires twisted together and two blue with orange and the phone worked for you, it must be like this, and the new socket with a small input (RJ- i.e., RJ11) because that's what it's called, you should turn on the middle contacts, i.e. green and red, as host 74 wrote, and yellow and black should be free. If it should be correct. Regards

    stefanito ........ you must have connected this phone a long time ago and your colleagues are wondering how to give you a hint here .... if so, close this topic because you can write a book about it.
    .... sorry maybe I'm exaggerating?

    you already connected, if not, give g

    And I'm getting off topic a bit
    I bought a double socket to connect the phone and Router - unfortunately I can't do it.
    The phone works and the Router too, but only on one plug. Both devices work on the splitter. However, after 1:1 bridging, they still only work in one plug.
    This is the second socket in the apartment that I installed myself to pull the cables from the original socket that still exists and is single-plug established by TPSA.
    Regards.

    let it go. If you have problems with such a simple matter, buy beer (6X) and let the professionals earn money..

    Will the number of red squares next to your nickname mean the percentage of your posts commented as not useful, unnecessary and offtopic??

Topic summary

The discussion revolves around connecting wires to a new-type telephone socket, specifically addressing the challenges faced by a user with an old-type socket setup. The user describes having multiple colored wires from two cables, with specific combinations of white, green, and blue wires. Responses suggest that typically, two wires (often white with another color) are sufficient for connection, and that the new socket likely has four terminals, with the middle ones designated for the telephone line. Users recommend testing connections by trial and error, checking for voltage, and ensuring proper pairing of wires. Some responses caution against unsafe practices, while others provide insights into regional wiring standards and the importance of identifying the correct pairs for successful installation.
