Regulatory Information On Analog Telephones
NEC single-line telephones comply with Part 68 of FCC Rules. On the bottom of the
equipment is a label that states, among other information, the FCC registration number
and ringer equivalence number (REN) for the equipment. If requested, this information
should be provided to the telephone company.
The equipment uses the following USOC jacks: RJ11C.
The equipment should be used only behind a PBX or KTS. The REN is used to
determine the number of devices that 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 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.
