Telecom Network Approvals

Telecom Network Approvals

The telecommunications device in your computer is approved for connection to the telephone network in the countries whose approval markings are indicated on the product label located on the bottom of the unit. Additional country approvals may be found on the Compaq web site. To view these approvals, visit http://www.compaq.com and perform a site search for the words “telecom network approvals.” If a selection is available for your product, you may view and print the approval marks or numbers.

Selecting a country other than the one in which you are currently located may cause your modem to be configured in a way that violates the telecommunication regulations/laws of that country. In addition, your modem may not function properly if the correct country selection is not made. If when selecting a country a message appears that states that the country is not supported, this means that the modem has not been approved for use in this country and thus should not be used.

U.S. Regulations Governing the Use of Modems

This equipment complies with Part 68 of the FCC rules. Located on the bottom of the computer is a label that contains, among other information, the FCC Registration Number and Ringer Equivalence Number (REN) for this equipment. Upon request, you must provide this information to your telephone company.

Ringer Equivalence Number

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 telephone number is called. In most areas (but not all), the sum of the RENs of all devices connected to one line should not exceed five (5.0). To be certain of the number of devices you may connect to your telephone line, as determined by the REN, you should contact your local telephone company to determine the maximum REN for your calling area.
