Hello,
Im about to buy my first home and plan on adding a network panel but I also plan on running my coax service from outside the home to inside the panel (dont plan on having tv but resell and whatnot.)
Ideally id also like to bring run a line from my telephone interface system to the network panel. I was wondering if they sell a "switch" that would take that one phoneline and split it between multiple phonelines that I can run throughout my house. I know they sell smaller ones but I was curious if they sell larger ones such as 12 or 16 port switches.
Thank you

I doubt it. You'll have to connect a bunch of those 4-way splitters in sequence. Or make your own, I guess, which should be simple enough.

Do you think I could use a standard network patch panel to accomplish this?

Do you want actual independent handsets, or just loads of sockets leading to the same line?
If it's the latter, just put in a fuckload of CAT6/CAT6e, and at the patch panel join the pin4s and pin5s on all the outlets you want to be able to plug a phone into.
You can plug a phone plug straight into an RJ45 socket, so there's no point in having phone sockets.
If it's the former, hit up eBay, craigslist or gumtree for a preowned Meridian system, and put the server in the rack with your patch panel. Meridian uses RJ45, so again flexibility.

Well, you'd need an RJ11 panel, not an RJ45 panel. But if you have that, sure -- if you take a patch panel, and interconnect your wiring on the back, you have your 24-port splitter.

No you don't: either use one of these boyos, or just ram the RJ11 in.
They fit because they're designed to.

So in theory if I ran one line from my voice terminals at my telecom system and then tied the blue end from that line to all blue ends of each patch terminal jack and the same for white/blue this would function the same as a "phone switch"?
