Telephone Company and F.C.C. 
Requirements and Responsibilities
1. Notification to the Telephone Company
Customers, before connecting terminal equipment to the telephone network, shall upon request of the
Telephone Company, inform the Telephone Company of the particular line(s) to which such
connection is made, the F.C.C. registration number (see the label on the bottom of the unit) and
ringer equivalence number (REN) of the registered terminal equipment.
The REN is useful in determining the quantity of devices you may connect to your telephone line and
still have all of those devices ring when your telephone number is called. In most, but not all areas,
the sum of the REN’s of all devices connected to one line should not exceed five (5.0). To be certain
of the number of devices you may connect to your line, as determined by the REN, you should
contact your local telephone company to determine the maximum REN for your calling area.
2. Connection to Telephone Line
This unit must not be connected to a coin operated line. If you are on a party line, check with your
local telephone company. 
3. Incidence of Harm to the Telephone Lines
Should terminal equipment cause harm to the telephone network, the telephone company shall,
where practical, notify the customer that temporary discontinuance of service may be required.
However, where prior notice is not practical, the telephone company may temporarily discontinue
service forthwith, if such action is reasonable in the circumstances. In case of such unnotified
temporary discontinuance of service, the telephone company shall:
(a) Promptly notify the customer of such temporary discontinuance of service.
(b) Afford the customer the opportunity to correct the situation which gave rise to the temporary
discontinuance.
(c) Inform the customer of the right to bring a complaint to the Federal Communication
Commission pursuant to the procedures set out in Subpart E of Part 68 of FCC Telephone
Equipment Rules.
4. Compatibility of the Telephone Network and Terminal Equipment
(a) Availability of telephone interface information.
Technical information concerning interface parameters and specifications not specified in FCC Rules,
including the number of Ringers which may be connected to a particular telephone line, which is
needed to permit Terminal Equipment to operate in a manner compatible with Telephone Company
communications facilities, shall be provided by the Telephone Company upon customer’s request.
(b) Changes in Telephone Company Communications Facilities, Equipment, Operations
and Procedures. 
The Telephone Company may make changes in its communications facilities, equipment, operations
or procedures, where such action is reasonably required in the operation of its business and is not
inconsistent with the rules and regulations in FCC Part 68. 
If such changes can be reasonably expected to render any customer Terminal Equipment
incompatible with Telephone Company Communications Facilities, or require modification or
alteration of such Terminal Equipment, or otherwise materially affect its use or performance, the
customer shall be given adequate notice in writing, to allow the customer an opportunity to maintain
uninterrupted service.
