Abstract
A wall plate is used for both a receptacle for a remote conventional telephone and for mounting a wall telephone by either detaching or attaching a pair of mounting posts. The wall plate is fastened to a support, such as a wall, and has a communication receptacle or jack located therein. A pair of plugs cover a pair of spaced-apart apertures in the wall plate when the wall plate is used with remote conventional telephones. To mount a wall telephone on the wall plate, the plugs are removed and detachable mounting posts are placed through the apertures and secured to a backing frame. The wall phone is mounted on the mounting posts and connected to the jack.
