Connecting the SAU-1900E to Your Telephone(s)
The SAU-1900E may be connected to up to 4 Ringer Equivalency Number (REN)
loads. The actual number of telephones that may be connected, however, depends upon
the load each telephone provides. Telephone manufacturer’s are required by FCC
regulations to stamp the value of the telephone load on the telephone themselves (usually
the bottom) and these numbers usually appear as follows: “REN: 1.0B” or “REN: 0.3A”.
It may also appear as “RINGER EQUIVALENCE: 1.0A”. You can ignore the ‘A’ or ‘B’
designations and only count the actual number values shown. Make sure that after adding
up the REN's on all the phones, the count does not exceed 4.0.
To connect the SAU-1900E in a business, or residence, is relatively easy. The
following diagram shows a typical installation for two phones:
1. Determine the location where the SAU-1900E will be installed (see
Where to Install
the SAU-1900E)
.
2. Install the SAU-1900E (see
Desktop Installation
or
Wall-Mount Installation
).
3. Verify that the included antenna on the SAU-1900E is pointing up (vertically). If you
are using an external antenna, connect the antenna connector to the SAU-1900E.
4. Connect the AC power supply adapter plug into the POWER jack on the back of the
SAU-1900E, then plug the AC power supply into an AC Wall Outlet.

walking on it, pets chewing on it, etc.
5. Using a standard RJ-11 modular jack connector connect the SAU-1900E to a
telephone or modular wall jack using common two-wire or four-wire flat telephone
cable. (This will have already been done in the wall-mount installation).
