Notice to Users of the Canadian Public Switched Telephone Network
The Canadian Department of Communications label identifies certified equipment. This
certification means that the equipment meets certain telecommunications network protective,
operational and safety requirements. The Department does not guarantee the equipment will
operate to the user’
s satisfaction.
Before installing this equipment, users should ensure that it is permissible to be connected to the
facilities of the local telecommunications company
. The equipment must also be installed using an
acceptable method of connection. In some cases, the company’
s inside wiring associated with a
single line individual service may be extended by means of a certified connector assembly
(telephone extension cord). The customer should be aware that compliance with the above
conditions may not prevent degradation of service in some situations.
Repairs to certified equipment should be made by an authorized Canadian maintenance facility
designated by the supplier
. Any repairs or alterations made by the user to this equipment, or
equipment malfunctions, may give the telecommunications company cause to request the user to
disconnect the equipment.
Users should ensure for their own protection that the electrical ground connections of the power
utility, telephone line and internal metallic water pipe system, if present, are connected together.
This precaution may be particularly important in rural areas.
CAUTION
Users should not attempt to make such connections
themselves, but should contact the appropriate
electric inspection authority, or electrician, as
appropriate.
The Load Number for this equipment is on the label on the modem. The Load Number (LN)
assigned to each terminal device denotes the percentage of the total load to be connected to a
telephone loop which is used by the device to prevent overloading. The termination on a loop may
consist of any combination of devices subject only to the requirement that the total of the Load
Numbers of all devices does not exceed 100.
If your equipment is in need of repair, refer to the procedure in the
Government Requir
ements and
