FCC Regulations—Part 68
This equipment is registered with the Federal Communications
Commission (FCC) in accordance with Part 68 of its Rules. The
FCC requires that the manufacturer provide you with the
following information:
1. Connection and Use with Nationwide Telephone Network
The FCC requires that you connect your telephone equipment
to the nationwide telephone network through a modular
telephone outlet or jack. The modular telephone outlet or jack
to which the equipment must be connected is a USOC RJ11C.
Registered equipment may not be used with Coin Telephone
Lines. Equipment may be used with Party Lines in areas where
state tariffs permit such connections and when equipment is
adaptable for such use.
2. Information You May Need to Supply the Telephone
Company
Upon request of your local telephone company, you are
required to provide them with the following information:
A. The lines to which you will connect the telephone
equipment.
B. The FCC registration number and Ringer Equivalence
Number (REN). Both numbers are listed on the equipment
label. The REN is useful to determine how many devices you
may connect to your telephone line and still have them ring
when your telephone line is called. In most, but not all, areas,
the sum of all RENs per line should be 5 or less. You may
want to contact your local telephone company. The local
telephone company must also be notified upon final
disconnection of the equipment from the local telephone
company lines.
