Installation and Operational Procedures

— The quantities and USOC numbers of the jacks required.
— For each jack, the sequence in which lines are to be connected, the
line types, the FIC, and the REN by position when applicable.
Ringer Equivalence Number (REN). The REN is used to determine the
number of devices that may be connected to the telephone line.
Excessive RENs on the 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 local telephone company to determine the maximum
REN for the calling area.
Disconnection. You must also notify your local telephone company if
and when this equipment is permanently disconnected from the line(s).
