The third way is the easiest: Buy a triplex adapter. You can plug a triplex adapter
into an RJl4 outlet. It separates the wires into two separate RJl 1 jacks (Line 1,
Line 2) and a third RJ14 jack (Lines 1 and 2). Plug the MFC into Line 2 of the
triplex adapter.

Installing MFC, External TWo-Line TAD,
and TWo-Line Telephone
when you are installing an external two-line telephone answering device (TAD)
and a two-line telephone, your MFC must be isolated on one line at both the wall
jack and at the TAD. The most common connection is to put the MFC on Line 2.
The two-line TAD must have two telephone jacks: one labeled LI or L1/L2, and
the other labeled L2. You will need at least three telephone line cords, the one
that came with your MFC and two for your external two-line TAD. You will need a
fourth line cord if you add a two-line telephone.
Place the two-line TAD and the two-line telephone next to your MFC.
Plug one end of the telephone line cord for your MFC into the L2 jack of the
triplex adapter. Plug the other end into the LINE jack on the left side of the
MFC.
Plug one end of the first telephone line cord for your TAD into the LI jack of
the triplex adapter. Plug the other end into the LI or L1/L2 jack of the
two-line TAD.
Plug one end of the second telephone line cord for your TAD into the L2 jack
of the two-line TAD. Plug the other end into the EXT. jack on the left side of
the MFC.
