FCC STATEMENT
FCC REQUIREMENTS FOR TELEPHONE-LINE EQUIPMENT
1. The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) has
established rules which permit this device to be directly
connected to the telephone network with standardized
jacks. This equipment should not be used on party lines
or coin lines.
2. If this device is malfunctioning, it may also be causing
harm to the telephone network; this device should be
disconnected until the source of the problem can be
determined and until the repair has been made. If this is
not done, the telephone company may temporarily
disconnect service.
3. If you have problems with your telephone equipment
after installing this device, disconnect this device from
the line to see if it is causing the problem. If it is,
contact your supplier or an authorized agent.
4. The telephone company may make changes in its
technical operations and procedures. If any such
changes affect the compatibility or use of this device,
the telephone company is required to give adequate
notice of the changes.
5. If the telephone company requests information on what
equipment is connected to their lines, inform them of:
a. The telephone number that this unit is connected to.
b. The ringer equivalence number.
c. The USOC jack required: RJ-11C.
d. The FCC registration number.
Items (b) and (d) can be found on the unit’s FCC label.
The ringer equivalence number (REN) is used to
determine how many devices can be connected to your
telephone line. In most areas, the sum of the RENs of
all devices on any one line should not exceed five
(5.0). If too many devices are attached, they may not
ring properly.
6. In the event of an equipment malfunction, all repairs
should be performed by your supplier or an authorized
agent. It is the responsibility of users requiring service
to report the need for service to the supplier or to an
authorized agent.
