Telephone Company Registration

It is usually not necessary to call the telecommunications company with information on the equipment before connecting the Business Communications Manager system to the telephone network. If the telecommunications company requires this information, provide the following:

•telephone number(s) to which the system will be connected

•FCC registration number (on label affixed to Business Communications Manager)

•universal service order code (USOC)

•service order code (SOC)

•facility interface code (FIC)

Rights of the Telecommunications Company

If the Business Communications Manager system or adjunct systems is causing harm to the telephone network, the telecommunications company may discontinue service temporarily. If possible, the telecommunications company will notify you in advance. If advance notice is not practical, the user will be notified as soon as possible. The user will be given the opportunity to correct the situation and informed of the right to file a complaint to the FCC.

The telecommunications company may make changes in its facilities, equipment, operations or procedures that could affect the proper functioning of the system. If this happens, the telecommunications company will give you advance notice in order for you to make any necessary modifications to maintain uninterrupted service.

Repairs

In the event of equipment malfunction, all repairs to certified equipment will be performed by an authorized supplier.

Notice

The term "IC" before the certification number located on the host equipment only signifies that the Industry Canada technical specifications were met. 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. 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 coordinated by a representative 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 lines and internal metallic water pipe system, if present, are connected together. This precaution may be particularly important in rural areas.
