well 8 wires are for LAN (network)....so ur analog phone will never work on it... better try to get a splitter and make two ports for RJ11(analog telephone port) from a single phone and use two phones

Tel socket require only 2-4 wires. You need to buy 2 sets of tel sockets (with wall mount) and one punch tool. Ensure that the pins on both sides are wired to the same colours. Then test it.
