If the offices are in the same building it should be a 30 minute job assuming both offices 
have an existing master phone socket.

1.	Identify and get access to the Network Termination Point (NTP) for the building.

2.	Plug a tone generator into the phone socket in the old office.

3.	At the NTP identify the connection pair serving the old office.

4.	Remove the tone generator from the old office and plug into the phone socket
           in the new office.

5.	At the NTP identify the connection pair serving the new office.

6.        AT the NTP swap the pairs serving the old and new office.

7.	Remove tone generator, test & tidy up.
