Regulatory Compliance
Industry Canada Technical Specifications
This product meets the applicable Industry Canada technical specifications.
Before installing this equipment, users should ensure that it is permissible to be connected to the facilities of the local telecommunica- tions company. The equipment must also be installed using an acceptable method of con- nection. In some cases, the company’s inside wiring associated with a single line individual service may be extended by means of a certified connector assembly (telephone exten- sion cord). 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 made by an authorized Canadian mainte- nance facility 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.
CAUTION: Users should not attempt to make such connections themselves, but should contact the appropriate electrical inspection authority, or electrician, as appropriate.
The Ringer Equivalence Number is an indi- cation of the maximum number of terminals allowed to be connected to a telephone interface. The termination on an interface may consist of any combination of devices subject only to the requirement that the sum of the Ringer Equivalence Numbers of all the devices does not exceed five.
(The term “IC:” before the certification/reg- istration number only signifies that the Industry Canada technical specifications were met.)
