Telecommunications per Industry Canada CS-03 (for products fitted with an
IC-compliant modem)
The Industry Canada label identifies certified equipment. This certification
means that the equipment meets certain telecommunications network
protective, operation, and safety requirements. The Department does not
guarantee the equipment will operate to the users’ satisfaction.
Before installing this equipment, users should make sure 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 inside wiring associated with a single-line individual service
may be extended by means of a certified connector assembly. The customer
should be aware that compliance with the above conditions may not prevent
degradation of service in some situations.
Repairs to certified equipment should be made by an authorized Canadian
maintenance facility 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.
Warning
To avoid electrical shock or equipment
malfunction do not attempt to make
electrical ground connections by yourself.
Contact the appropriate inspection
authority or an electrician, as
appropriate.
Users should make sure, for their own protection, that the electrical ground
connections of the power utility, telephone lines, and internal metallic water
pipe system, if present, are connected together. This precaution may be
particularly important in rural areas.
The Ringer Equivalence Number (REN) assigned to each terminal device
provides an indication of the maximum number of terminals allowed to be
connected to a telephone interface. The termination on an interface may consist
of any combination of devices subject only to the requirement that the sum of
the Ringer Equivalence Numbers of all the devices does not exceed 5.
