For Canadian Modem Users
NOTICE: The Industry Canada (IC) label
identifies certified equipment. This
certification means the equipment meets
certain telecommunications network
protective, operational, and safety
requirements as prescribed in the
appropriate Terminal Equipment Technical
Requirements document(s). The
Department does not guarantee the
equipment will operate to the user’s
satisfaction. Before installing this
equipment, users should ensure that it is
permissible to be connected to the facilities
of the local telecommunications company.
The equipment must also be installed using
an acceptable method of connection. In
some cases, the company’s inside wiring
associated with a single-line, individual
service may be extended by means of a
certified connector assembly (telephone
extension cord.) The customer should be
aware that compliance with the above
conditions may not prevent degradation of
service in some situations.
Currently, telecommunication companies
do not allow users to connect their
equipment to jacks except in precise
situations that are spelled out in tariffing
arrangements with those companies.
Repairs to certified equipment should be
coordinated by a representative designated
by the supplier. Any repairs or alterations
made by the user to this equipment, or
equipment malfunctions, may give the
telecommunications company cause to
request the user to disconnect the
equipment.
