Phone outlet

No you don't need a phone jack. You may need a cable jack in that room though, but it's a little more complicated then that. What kind of modem do you have?

I have a cable jack and a phone jack but the are o. Opposite sides of the room. We have a wireless modem and the cable modem. The cable modem is a touchstone telephony modem.

thank you.

Oh I see. I misunderstood. To answer your question, no. But it will limit what phones you can use. You can plug a cordless phone directly into the Telephony modem and then put cordless headsets in different rooms. 

PGaritson,

Telephony modems should only be moved by a Cox technician. I'm happy to get the work order setup. Please email me at coxhelp@cox.com.
