Interconnection
1.
This equipment complies with Part 68 of the Federal
Communications Commission (FCC) rules. On the outside
surface of this equipment is a label that contains, among other
information, the FCC registration number and ringer
equivalence number (REN). If requested, this information must
be provided to the telephone company.
2.
As indicated below, the suitable jack (Universal Service Order
Code connecting arrangement) for this equipment is shown. If
applicable, the facility interface codes (FIC) and service order
codes (SOC) are shown. An FCC-compliant telephone cord and
modular plug is provided with this equipment. This equipment is
designed to be connected to the telephone network or premises
wiring using a compatible modular jack which is Part 68
compliant. See installation instructions for details.
3.
The ringer equivalence number (REN) is used to determine the
quantity of devices which may be connected to the telephone
line. Excessive RENs on the telephone line may result in the
devices not ringing in response to an incoming call. In most, but
not all areas, the sum of the RENs should not exceed five (5.0).
To be certain of the number of devices that may be connected
to the line, as determined by the total RENs, contact the
telephone company to determine the maximum REN for the
calling area.
4.
If this equipment causes harm to the telephone network, the
telephone company will notify you in advance. But if advance
notice isn't practical, the telephone company will notify the
customer as soon as possible. Also, you will be advised of your
right to file a complaint with the FCC if you believe it is
necessary.
5.
The telephone company may make changes in its facilities,
equipment, operations, or procedures that could affect the
operation of the equipment. If this happens, the telephone
company will provide advance notice in order for you to make
necessary modifications in order to maintain uninterrupted
service.
