Fax Machines
For best results, fax machines should be connected
to the ooma Hub (using the PHONE port), not to
an ooma Scout. To prevent interference with the
operation of the ooma system, please make sure the
fax machine is congured to not answer phone calls
automatically. When placing fax calls, dial *99 prior
to dialing the destination fax number.

Other Devices
Devices such as digital video recorders, satellite receivers, and security systems require a landline to function
properly. These devices should not be connected through an ooma device. Leave them connected to the
landline, as-is.
If the device is congured to turn off call-waiting (typically by dialing *70), that option must be disabled once
your landline is provisioned by ooma. See the ooma Support website for step-by-step instructions on how to
do this for common devices.
If a phone shares a wall jack with one of these devices, use a standard duplex splitter and connect one jack
to the device, and the other jack to the ooma Hub or ooma Scout. Do not use any “pass-through” telephone
jacks that the device may have to allow it to connect in-line with a telephone.
