How to connect more than 3 analogue phones?

[Edward Velo]

Hi,

What is the most elegant way to connect more than three analogue telephones to a Fritz!box 7050 ? I mean in a way they can work independently (so not parallel on the same connector).

- using two 7050's ? Is that possible? Can all 6 phones then ring on incoming calls? I think this also gives problems with fixed line calls...

- using an ISDN-to-analogue converter on the S0 bus? Any tips where I can find these? (they are not so common in Belgium) Can I also have "direct outside dialling" then (dialing outside without a leading zero) ?

Thanks for any tips!

- Using of a second 7050s is wasting of money, one simple "Fritz!Box Fon" instead is ok.
- Converter: look for ISDN a/b Terminal Adapter (TA), e.g. TELEDAT USB 2 a/b = Fritz!X PC

- "direct outside dialling" (german: spontane Amtsholung) is default for every Fritz!Box or TA
