FCC requirements
Information in the following paragraphs pertains to FCC-required information.
These paragraphs describe where to locate details concerning the Digital
Telephone IP Adapter units’ compliance to FCC regulations, as well as these
regulations’ effects on the use of the Digital Telephone IP Adapter units.
Part 68
The Digital Telephone IP Adapter units comply with Part 68 of the FCC rules. A
label on the underside of the enclosure contains, among other information, the
FCC certification number and ringer equivalence number (REN) for the Digital
Telephone IP Adapter units. If requested, you must provide this information to
the telephone company.
Telephone network plug and jack
The Digital Telephone IP Adapter unit’s package contains an FCC-compliant
telephone cord and modular plug. The Digital Telephone IP Adapter unit’s
design calls for it to be connected to the telephone network or premises wiring
using a Part 68-compliant modular jack. Refer to Chapter 3, “Installing the
Digital Telephone IP Adapter unit,” for complete details on proper installation of
the Digital Telephone IP Adapter unit.
Equipment harmful to the telephone network
If the Digital Telephone IP Adapter unit causes harm to the telephone network,
the telephone company notifies the customer in advance that temporary
discontinuance of service may be required. But, if advance notice isn’t practical,
the telephone company notifies the customer as soon as possible. The customer
also receives notification of their right to file a complaint with the FCC if the
customer believes a complaint is necessary.
