Modular Telephone Jack and Data Jack Installation Instructions

These basic instructions are the same with Category 3, 5e (Ethernet) and 6 modular jacks. We carry switchplates that fit one (TJ) or two (TJ2) modular telephone jacks with RJ45 modular jacks. Click on Light Switch Plates for our full collection of decorative light switchplate covers. WARNING: We do not guarantee the accuracy or safety of these instructions. Consult with a licensed telephone repair professional before proceeding. Please call the Leviton technical support line at 800-824-3005 with questions. Photos listed left to right, top to bottom.

Photo1: This is the front of the plate we will replace with a modular phone jack.
Photo 2: Inside of the plate we are replacing. There is one set of wires (one solid blue, the other white with blue stripe) that is attached to the old plate. Green set and orange set of wires also are coming out of beige telephone cable (partially covered with lavender paint in the photo), but are not being used.
Photo 3: Tools required. Wire cutter, wire stripper, screw driver and push tool provided in the Leviton Modular Jack package.
Photo 4: Front and back views of the Leviton Modular Jack packaging. Package calls it a Quickport Voice Grade Jack.
Photo 5: Cut back the outer cable housing (beige in our photo) containing the colored wires, being sure not to cut the plastic casing on each individual wire. Determine which color code grid on the jack corresponds to your wiring using the chart on the package instructions. The wiring in our picture corresponds to the bottom row of colors. Push solid blue wire and white wire with blue stripe into their correct slots with your fingers. (Repeat these next steps for each set of wires you have.)
Photo 6: Use tool provided to push wires completely down into slots.
Photo 7: Top view of wires pushed completely down into slots.
Photo 8: Trim wires using wire cutters.
Photo 9: Left side of jack with wires attached.
Photo 10: Right side of jack with wires attached.
Photo 11: Snap modular jack into telephone jack plate. It might help to push on clip with a slot head screwdriver to help bend clip in and through opening.
Photo 12: Place black bridge clip over pair of slots.
Photo 13: Push black bridge clip all the way down to prevent wires from coming out.
Photo 14: Screw plate into wall and plug in telephone cable. You're done!


Photo 15: This type of plate is too wide and too deep to be covered by our telephone jack plates.
Photo 16: The type of wiring inside this box is called a daisy chain. Only one main cable is strung through this building. The cable comes in, is cut and attached to the telephone jack, then goes out of each box, so the phone jacks in other rooms are are all connected in one long chain. (Pairs of wires [two blues, two whites with blue stripes] are twisted together then placed under the screw to make the connection.) This type of arrangement won't work with a modular telephone jack, so our plates won't work.
Last 4 Photos: We stock switchplates in over 50 hard-to-find sizes and configurations, including odd combo plates, oversized plates and old-fashioned push button switchplates. We carry these in 7 different finishes: Satin Stainless Steel, Polished Chrome, Brushed Aluminum, Black, White, Ivory and Polished Brass. Plain Telephone Jack plates are available by finish near the bottom of the drop down menus for the plain undecorated plates (here is the link to the Stainless Steel ones: Satin Stainless Steel Switchplates) and here for the decorative ones: Decorative One Hole Modular Telephone Jack Switchplates or Decorative Two Hole Modular Telephone Jack Switchplates. Other switch plate finishes and sizes are available by special order. Please click on Light Switch Plates for our full collection of decorative light switchplate covers
