1.5 F.C.C. REQUIREMENTS AND RELEVANT INFORMATION
2.
Ringer Equivalence Number (REN)
The REN is used to determine the number of devices that may be connected to a telephone line. Exces-
sive RENs on a telephone line may result in the devices not ringing in response to an incoming call. In
most but not all areas, the sum of RENs should not exceed five (5.0). To be certain of the number of
devices that may be connected to a line, as determined by the total RENs, contact the local telephone
company.
The REN for this product is part of the product identifier that has the format US: ACJIS04BKX-HTS824.
The digits represented by 04 are the REN without a decimal point (e.g., 04 is a REN of 0.4). For earlier
products, the REN is separately shown on the label.
