Affidavit Requirements for Connection to Digital Services

An affidavit is required to be given to the telephone company whenever digi- tal terminal equipment without encoded analog content and billing protec- tion is used to transmit digital signals containing encoded analog content which are intended for eventual conversion into voice band analog signal and transmitted on the network.

The affidavit shall affirm that either no encoded analog content or billing information is being transmitted or that the output of the device meets Part 68 encoded analog content or billing protection specification.

End use/customer will be responsible to file an affidavit with the local exchange carrier when connecting unprotected CPE to a 1.544 Mbps or sub- rate digital service.

Until such time as subrate digital terminal equipment is registered for voice applications, the affidavit requirements for subrate services are waived.
