Price is what the vendor listed when last checked. Confirm it with the vendor before buying.

Setup with instructions The transmitter is simple to connect, but it only helps once it is paired with a compatible receiver and tested. A family member can do this from the manual in about half an hour, so guided setup fits. It is also only part of a larger alerting system.

Accessory or replacement part Made to go with another product — check it fits what you have.

What it is

Summary

AI-generated from vendor-published content · October 1, 2026

This transmitter watches your analog phone line and sends a wireless signal when a voice, TTY, or VCO call comes in. A Silent Call Signature Series receiver picks up that signal and alerts you, so you know the phone is ringing even if you can't hear it. It plugs into a standard phone jack, runs on two AA batteries (included), and comes with a dual phone jack adapter and Velcro for mounting. It only works with Signature Series 418 MHz receivers, so this is one piece of an alerting setup, not a stand-alone alarm.

What setup looks like

  • With a guide
    1. Insert the two AA batteries (included) and use Velcro to mount the transmitter near your phone jack.
    2. Plug the transmitter into the phone jack, using the dual phone jack adapter if your phone also needs to stay plugged in.
    3. Pair it with your Signature Series receiver, then place a test call to check that the alert comes through. Plan on about 15-30 minutes. See manufacturer support resources for detailed instructions.
