FCC INFORMATION
This equipment complies with Part 68 of the FCC Rules. The label affixed to this equipment contains, among other information, the FCC Registration Number and Ringer Equivalence Number (REN) for this equipment. We suggest that you review the following information provided by the FCC.
NOTIFICATION TO THE TELEPHONE COMPANY
Notification to the telephone company is no longer required prior connecting the registered equipment. However, upon request from the telephone company the user shall tell the telephone company which line the equipment is connected to as well as the registration number and the ringer equivalence of the registered protective circuitry. In most, but not all areas, the sum of all REN’s should be 5.0 or less.
TELEPHONE CONNECTION REQUIREMENTS
Except for ringers provided by the telephone company, all connections to the telephone network must be made through standard plugs, telephone company provided jacks, or equivalent, in such a manner as to allow for easy and immediate disconnection of the terminal equipment. Standard jacks should be so arranged that, if the connected plug is withdrawn, no interference to the operation of the equipment at the customer’s premises, which remains connected to the telephone network, should occur by reason of such withdrawal.
INCIDENCE OF HARM
Should terminal equipment or protective circuitry cause harm to the telephone network, the telephone company shall, where practical, notify the customer that temporary discontinuance of service may be required. However, where prior notices are not practical, the telephone company may temporarily discontinue service if such action is deemed reasonable in the circumstances. In the case of such temporary discontinuance, the telephone company shall promptly notify the customer who has the right to bring a complaint to the FCC if he feels the disconnection is not warranted.
