Mounting Cords

Standard telephone mounting cords are 12 feet long. Longer mounting cords can be made for locations that require them, such as in conference rooms to connect a conference-calling device to the phone line.

Cost

Consult the NU Service and Equipment Rates Charges (PDF).

Features/Options

For safety reasons, mounting cords longer than 12 feet are not allowed in most office locations. If a phone must be located further from an existing jack than the standard mounting cord length allows, the department must order a new phone jack at the desired location.

Please note that there is a labor charge involved.
