I hope this is the right place for this. I have one phone line in my house and its a cat 6. I'm planning on adding a line in our kitchen, so my question is can I piggy back off the cat 6 phone jack to a new phone outlet? In this picture, the blue lines are the phone, can I pop a new set of wires into this and over to where the new phone jack will be? I hope I'm being clear, I know what I mean, but that doesn't always mean others will get it. :)

Thanks for any help.

All you can do is try it and hope it works out. Shouldn’t be a hazardous condition. Good luck
