FCC Part 15 Class A Statement
The server is designated as complying with Class A requirements if it bares the following text on the rating label:
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions:
(1) This device may not cause harmful interference.
(2) This device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.
This device has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC rules. These
limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a commercial installation. This equipment
generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause
harmful interference with radio communications. Operation of this equipment in a residential area is likely to cause harmful
interference, in which case you will be required to correct the interference at your own expense.
Telecommunications per 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 RENs on a telephone line may result in the devices not ringing in response to an incoming call. In most areas, the sum of
RENs 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
RENs, 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.
The telephone company may make changes in its facilities, equipment, operations, or procedures that could affect the operation of
this equipment. If this happens, the telephone company will provide advance notice in order for you to make necessary modifications
to maintain uninterrupted service.
This equipment cannot be used on telephone company-provided coin service. Connection to party line service is subject to state
tariffs. Contact the state public utility commission or public service commission for information.
When programming or making test calls to emergency numbers:
■
Remain on the line and briefly explain to the dispatcher the reason for the call.
■
Perform such activities in the off-peak hours such as early morning or late evenings.
The United States Telephone Consumer Protection Act of 1991 makes it unlawful for any person to use a computer or other electronic
device to send any message via a telephone fax machine unless such message clearly contains, in a margin at the top or bottom of
each transmitted page or on the first page of the transmission, the date and time it is sent, an identification of the business, other
entity, or other individual sending the message, and the telephone number of the sending machine or such business, other entity, or
individual. Refer to your fax communication software documentation for details on how to comply with the fax-branding requirement.
