FCC Part 68 and ACTA
If this equipment was approved for connection to the telephone network prior to July 23,
2001, it complies with Part 68 of the Federal Communications Commission (FCC)
rules. If the equipment was approved after that date, it complies with the Part 68 rules
and with Technical Requirements for Connection of Equipment to the Telephone
Network adopted by the Administrative Council for Terminal Attachments (ACTA). We
are required to provide you with the following information.
1. Product identifier and REN information
The label on the back or bottom of this equipment contains, among other things,
an identifier indicating product approval and the Ringer Equivalence Number
(REN). This information must be provided to your local telephone company upon
request. For equipment approved prior to July 23, 2001, the product identifier is
preceded by the phrase "FCC Reg No." and the REN is listed separately. For
equipment approved after that date, the product identifier is preceded by "US"
and a colon (:), and the REN is encoded in the product identifier without a
decimal point as the sixth and seventh characters following the colon. For
example, the product identifier US:AAAEQ03T123XYZ would indicate an REN
of 0.3. The REN is used to determine how many devices you may connect to
your telephone line and still have them ring when you are called. In most, but not
all areas, the sum of all RENs should be five (5.0) or less. You may want to
contact your local telephone company for more information.
