How to add extra phones ?

Tommy2 — Mon, 31 Aug 2026 15:21:58 GMT

I currently have a DECT set of two BT Phones that I am using with Sky however, I would like to add more without getting a new DECT phone set. I deally I would like a corded telephone near my Sky Hub as well as the DECT telephone set. I was wondering if anyone could advise on how to do this please as Sky advised me not to add a telphone extension reel to the back of my Sky Hub (im unsure if this would work) and im aware that Sky dont support digital voice adapters. Is it possible to use a splitter at the back of the Sky Hub so that more than one phone could be used ?

thank you @TimmyBGood so im guessing two phones plugged into a splitter at the back of the hub and one plugged into it via a telpehone extension lead should be fine ?

@Tommy2

A regular passive analogue phone splitter should be fine.

Thank you for answering @TimmyBGood , im pleased with this as Sky dont do VOIP adapters like other proiders, my only confusion was using a telphoen extension lead/cable as the manual states a phone should plug directly into the Sky hub, which is difficult in my case.
