The 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.
