14.6.8 Compliance with FCC Rules
Transmit and Receive Gain Settings for PRI/T1 and Analog Ports
The Gain settings are password controlled for use by qualified installation personnel only and must not be made available
to the end user. The default gain settings of 0dB ensures compliance with FCC part 68 section 68.308(b)(5) and TIA/EIA-
IS-968 Section 4.5.2.5. "Through transmission amplification from ports for the connection of separately registered
equipment or from other network connection ports". Gain setting adjustment by unqualified personnel may result in
violation of the FCC rules. Qualified personnel may adjust gain settings above these levels only where:
1. Measurement is made to ensure that the power levels sent to line at each network interface connected does not
exceed the maximum levels specified in FCC part 68 section 68.308(b) and TIA/EIA-IS-968 Section 4.5 for that
specific interface type.
2. Where gain adjustment away from the default values are made, precautions should be taken to ensure that the
connection of terminal equipment is controlled by qualified installation personnel.
3. To conform with the Receive Objective Loudness Rating at distances greater than 2.7km from the central office, on
analog trunks a receive gain of 1.5dB must be set.
