Government Requirements
Certain governments require that instructions pertaining to connection to the telephone network be
included in the installation and operation manual. Specific instructions are listed in the following
sections.
United States
Notice to Users of the Telephone Network
This equipment complies with Part 68 of the FCC rules. On the bottom of the equipment is a label
or silk-screened text that contains, among other information, the FCC registration number and
Ringer Equivalence Number (REN) for this equipment. If requested, please provide this
information to your telephone company.
The REN is useful to determine the quantity of devices you may connect to your telephone line
and still have all of those devices ring when your number is called. In most areas, the sum of the
RENs of all devices should not exceed 5. Call your local telephone company to ascertain the
maximum REN for your calling area.
If your Model 3610 or 3611 DSU with DBM causes harm to the telephone network, the telephone
company may discontinue your service temporarily. If possible, they will notify you in advance.
But if advance notice is not practical, you will be notified as soon as possible. You will be advised
of your right to file a complaint with the FCC.
Your telephone company may make changes in facilities, equipment, operations, or procedures that
could affect the proper operation of your equipment. If so, you will be given advance notice so as
to give you an opportunity to maintain uninterrupted service.
The DBM cannot be used on public coin-operated telephone service provided by the telephone
company. Connection to party-line service is subject to state tariffs. Contact the state public utility
commission, public service commission, or corporation commission for information.
No repairs may be performed by the user. Should you experience difficulty with this equipment,
refer to
Equipment Warranty and Support
