Im looking for a way to have 2 phones setup so that when both ends are picked up they can talk. I dont want to haft to worry about either end dialing a number or having one side pick up first so it dials the other. Is there a way to set up a point to point (prison phone) type circuit.
 
Called HOT-LINE, all you need is 2 Analog TN's. Or you could wire the 2 phones up in series to one Unprogramed TN, all they would do is pick up phone and start talking.

point to point.. maybe ncos 0, if that's internal only.. as soon as you pick up either phone the other rings.. if you don't need a ringer,turn it off or take it out of the phone.. some users perfer just a lamp instead of a ringer
