Can cat5e be used for phone? 2

[Rosee]

I am new in this area and need help. We are building our home and have cat5e cable installed through entire house.

My questions are: when we move in, is it easy to hoke up a phone to cat5e? does it need special connecting? can I use our current phones (regular phones) on cat5e wiring? can I use any phone system from wal-mart supermarket onto cat5e wiring? do the connectors appear the same on the wall and the phone?

I have never dealed with cat5e for phones before. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

the builder is going to blown in ceiling insulation. Since we have some reccessed lights on the ceiling, I don't know which one is good to use, cellulose or fiber glass.

some people say that we should go fiber glass for safety purpose. some people say that cellulose is also good. any advice will be greatly appreciated.

I have flooded many homes and I find using 568-A pinning is more universal for phone or data uses. Line 2 is the orange pair in telephony. BICSI is recomending -A all around as well for residential installs.

Why is there never a phone in any of the phone closets?
