Multi-Tech Systems MT3334SMI manual Telecom Labeling Requirements, FCC Part

Chapter 1 - Introduction and Description

Telecom Labeling Requirements

FCC regulations require labeling of registered Telephone and Data Terminal Equipment in accordance with Part 68 Subpart D. There are two options available for labeling of the device containing the MT5634SM modem module. The first option would be to use the registration number assigned to Multi-Tech Systems, Inc. by the FCC as explained in Section 68.300 below and shown in the sample label. The second option would be for the customer to submit applications for and use their own registration number that would be assigned by the FCC. This would require a letter of authorization for reregistration written by Multi-Tech Systems, Inc. giving the customer permission to reregister the product. The customer would also need to obtain and file the necessary documents and pay the required fees to the FCC.

Similarly, Industry Canada requires labeling in accordance with CS-03 requirements. Each modem module includes an Industry Canada label that should be attached to the final product as described in the Industry Canada CS-03 section below. Multiple Listing (similar to FCC’s re-registration) is also an option for Industry Canada labeling. Instructions are also detailed below.
