Your Intele–Modem complies with Part 68 of the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) Rules. The label on the bottom of your Intele–Modem presents the following required information. If the telephone company requests this information, you must provide it.
FCC Registration Number: D8K7IB–10458–MD–E
Ringer Equivalence Number (REN): 0.4B
Jack: USOC RJ11W
Use a telephone company registered jack to connect your Intele–Modem to the telephone lines. Use registered jack type USOC RJ11C. This jack is a modular outlet that you can order from your local telephone company or telephone supply store.
FCC rules do not permit you to connect your Intele–Modem to a pay telephone. Connection to party lines is subject to state regulations.
Use the Ringer Equivalence Number (REN) listed above to determine how many direct connect devices you can connect to your telephone line. When you add up the REN numbers of all the devices plugged into your phone line, including telephones, modems, and direct connect TTYs, the sum of the RENs should not be more than five. (This is for most areas of the country— contact your local telephone company to determine the exact maximum REN for your local area.) If you plug too many devices into your phone line, some of them may fail to ring when someone calls you.
The telephone company may make changes in its facilities, equipment, operations, or procedures that could affect the proper functioning of your Intele–Modem. If this happens, they
will notify you in advance to give you the opportunity to maintain uninterrupted service. If your Intele–Modem causes harm to the telephone network, your telephone company has the right to discontinue your service temporarily. If possible, they will notify you in advance. But if advance notice is not practical, they will notify you as soon as possible. You will have the opportunity to correct the situation, and you will be informed of your right to file a complaint with the FCC.
Your Intele–Modem generates and uses radio frequency energy, and may cause radio or television interference. Your Intele–Modem complies with the regulations for a Class B computing device as specified in Subpart J of Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These rules are designed to minimize radio frequency interference in residential installations.
Use your Intele–Modem in strict adherence with these instructions.
There is no guarantee that radio frequency interference will not occur during use. You can determine if your Intele–Modem causes interference to radio or television reception by disconnecting and reconnecting it while your radio or television is on.
If radio frequency interference occurs, try to correct it by:
re-orienting the radio or television receiving antenna;
moving your Intele–Modem away from the receiving antenna; or
moving your Intele–Modem away from the radio or television.
If necessary, consult an experienced radio/television technician for additional suggestions.
