How many analog devices can you attach to a single PAP2T phone port in parallel?

I'm hoping to rewire the house moving the street connection to a seperate jack, and then plugging the PAP2T phone line into one of the three house jacks. (all in prep for Fusion) Does anyone know if this will work?

I have only 2 phones and the house alarm that I want to run over the single voIP line. The house alarm isn't monitored, just dials my cell on trigger events.

The REN spec for PAP2T is 5, which means that you can run up to 5 devices.

Personally, I have run 4 devices off a PAP2T and everything worked fine. Don't forget to allow for your Sky Decoder if you have that installed.

Yes, it will be fine, so long as you do the wiring correctly

I had ringing issues with 3 on mine, but changing the ring to trapezoidal in the config on it solved that - I dont know if thats something that wxc lock down or what they default it to so you may be ok. It doesnt like the bell in my old dial phone, but since that cant dial out theres little point having it plugged in anyway.
