Regulatory Information On Analog Telephones
NEC single-line telephones comply with Part 68 of FCC Rules. On the bottom of the
equipment is a label that states, among other information, the FCC registration number and
ringer equivalence number (REN) for the equipment. If requested, this information should be
provided to the telephone company.
The equipment uses the following USOC jacks: RJ11C.
The equipment should be used only behind a PBX or KTS. The REN is used to determine the
number of devices that may be connected to the telephone line. Excessive RENs on the
telephone line may result in the devices not ringing in response to an incoming call. In most,
but not all, areas, the sum of RENs should not exceed five (5.0). To be certain of the number
of devices that may be connected to the line as determined by the total RENs, contact the
telephone company to determine the maximum REN for the calling area.
