FONEBOX — TELEPHONE/ELECTRIC COMBINATION JUNCTION BOX
All wireless telephones, answering machines or combinations thereof require both a telephone line and a transformer to convert AC current from an outlet to DC current used by the devices. These connections create an unsightly mess on the wall of every highly designed environment, where appliances such as TVs, refrigerators, etc. (even the coffee maker) is “built-in”.Furthermore,installingaphoneontypicalwalloutletsisusuallydifficult,andtheDSLfiltercreatesextrabulkthatcanturnanyexpensivetelephonesystemintoaneyesore.This simple device provides all required items and functions such as the AC outlet, DSL filter,coverplate,andspaceforthetelephone’sACplugandcablewithinaregularsizeelectrical junction box Typical wall construction with regularly-spaced 2x4 studs and gypsum board creates a 3.5” hollow space in the walls, allowing the Wire Wrangler to be easily installed during new construction or as a simple alteration inserted into existing drywalls.
