This equipment complies with Part 68 of the FCC rules and the
requirements adopted by the ACTA. On the bottom of this equipment
is a label that contains, among other information, a product identifier
in the format US: AAAEQ##TXXXX. If requested, this number must be
provided to the telephone company.
An applicable Universal Service Order Codes (USOC) certification
for the jacks used in this equipment is provided (i.e., RJ11C) in the
packaging with each piece of approved terminal equipment. A plug
and jack used to connect this equipment to the premises wiring and
telephone network must comply with the applicable FCC Part 68 rules

The REN is used to determine the number of devices that may be
connected to a telephone line. Excessive RENs on a telephone line
may result in the devices not ringing in response to an incoming call. In
most but not all areas, the sum of RENs should not exceed five (5.0).
To be certain of the number of devices that may be connected to a line,
as determined by the total RENs, contact the telephone provider. For
products approved after July 3, 001, the REN for this product is part
of the product identifier that has the format US:AAAEQ##TXXXX. The
digits represented by ## are the REN without a decimal point (e.g., 03
is a REN of 0.3). For earlier products, the REN is separately shown on
the label.
If this equipment causes harm to the telephone network, the telephone
company will notify you in advance that temporary discontinuance
of service may be required. But if advance notice isn’t practical, the
telephone company will notify the customer as soon as possible. Also,
you will be advised of your right to file a complaint with the FCC if you
believe it is necessary. The telephone company may make changes in
its facilities, equipment, operations or procedures that could affect the
operation of the equipment. If this happens the telephone company will
provide advance notice in order for you to make necessary modifications
to maintain uninterrupted service.
