This jack is designed for a competitive service provider to distribute voice service via a residential gateway (i.e., EMTA, or
phone adapter) through a home's existing wiring. The jack must be terminated at the demarcation point where the
incoming wire enters the customer's premise (first jack in series). The incumbent service provider's incoming wires are
terminated to the blunt cut leads using the butt splice connectors. Premise wires to the screws on the back of the terminal
block. All jacks connected in series from this jack will be controlled through this switched jack.
