Canada – Notice to Users of the Telephone Network
The Canadian Department of Communications label identifies certified equipment. This
certification means that the equipment meets certain telecommunications network
protective, operational and safety requirements. The Department does not guarantee
the equipment will operate to the user’s satisfaction.
Before installing this equipment, users should ensure 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
company’s inside wiring associated with a single line individual service may be
extended by means of a certified connector assembly (telephone extension cord). 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.
Users should ensure for their own protection that the electrical ground connections of
the power utility, telephone line and internal metallic water pipe system, if present, are
connected together. This precaution may be particularly important in rural areas.
CAUTION:
Users should not attempt to make such connections themselves, but should
contact the appropriate electric inspection authority, or electrician, as
appropriate.
The Load Number for this equipment is on the label on the modem. The Load Number
(LN) assigned to each terminal device denotes the percentage of the total load to be
connected to a telephone loop which is used by the device to prevent overloading. The
termination on a loop may consist of any combination of devices subject only to the
requirement that the total of the Load Numbers of all devices does not exceed 100.
If your equipment is in need of repair, refer to the procedure in the
United States –
Notice to Users of the Telephone Network
section.
