FCC Part 68 (applicable to products fitted with USA modems)
Your modem complies with Part 68 of the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) rules.
On the computer or modem card is a label that contains the FCC registration number and Ringer
Equivalence Number (REN) for this device. If requested, this information must be provided to
the telephone company.
An FCC compliant telephone line cord with a modular plug is required for use with this device.
The modem is designed to be connected to the telephone network or premises wiring using a
compatible modular jack which is Part 68 compliant. See installation instructions for details.
The Ringer Equivalence Number (REN) is used to determine the number of devices which may
be connected to the telephone line. Excessive REN’s on a telephone line may result in the devices
not ringing in response to an incoming call. In most areas, the sum of REN’s should not exceed
five (5.0). To be certain of the number of devices that may be connected to a line, as determined
by the total REN’s, contact the local telephone company.
If this device causes harm to the telephone network, the telephone company will notify you in
advance that temporary discontinuance of service may be required. The telephone company may
request that you disconnect the equipment until the problem is resolved.
