CONNECT TELEPHONES TO THE SOMAPORT
In order to use a telephone with your SOMAport, you will need to
subscribe to your service provider’s telephone service during service
activation.
If telephone service is not available in your area or if you do not want to
use telephones with your SOMAport, skip to “Activate Service” on
page 27.
Telephone Jacks
There are two telephone jacks on the back of the SOMAport, one for
line 1 (bottom) and the other for line 2 (top).
How you connect telephones to the SOMAport depends on three
things:
 The number of lines you subscribe to (one or two)
 The number of telephones you connect to the SOMAport
 The type of telephones you connect (one-line or two-line
telephones)
