LABELING REQUIREMENTS
interested parties. The letter height must be no less than 1.5 mm and the letters must be legible
without magnification.
b.
For integrated devices, e.g. a modem or one that is intended to become a sub-assembly of host
equipment e.g. a data terminal, computer etc. that are designed to interface directly with the network,
the certification/registration number shall be affixed to the integrated device itself.
c.
The certification/registration number for a packaged TE will denote that the total package has been
registered. However, the marking will normally be placed on that unit of the package which connects
to the network; e.g., in a PBX the marking will be placed on the common equipment which connects to
the network, rather than on plug-in components which may be added later. The Terminal Equipment
List will show the common equipment but not the standard station apparatus or any proprietary
station apparatus.
d.
The marking format of the certification/registration number is as follows:
IC: XXXXXX-YYYYYYYY
Where:
The letters "IC" have no other meaning or purpose than to identify the Industry Canada
certification/registration number, and
“XXXXXX-YYYYYYYY” is the certification/registration number; “XXXXXX” is the Company Number¹ (CN); it
consists of up to six alphanumeric characters (A-Z, 0-9) assigned by Industry Canada; and “YYYYYYYY” is
the Unique Product Number (UPN); it consists of up to eight alphanumeric characters (A-Z, 0-9)
assigned by the applicant. Other characters, such as & # *-, may not be used. Alphabetic characters
must be capitalized.
Note:
The Company number of registered equipment ends with an alphabetic character.
e.
Certification numbers granted prior to the implementation of the above marking format are
grandfathered.
i.
For previously certified TE, the self-marking format shall consist of the old certification number
preceded by “IC:” For example, if the certification number is “123 1234 A”, then the self-mark
would read “IC: 123 1234 A”.
ii.
For a new model that is registered to a family of previously certified TE, the self-marking format
shall be: IC: XXXXXX-ZZZZZZZZ
Where:
■
“XXXXXX” is the Company Number, as in (d) above; and
■
“ZZZZZZZZ” is either the old certification number minus the old company number, or a
new Unique Product Number assigned by the applicant. For example, if a new model is
registered to the family of products with certification number “123 1234 A”, and that
the Company Number for the registration is “123A”, then the self-mark for this new
model would read “IC: 123A-1234 A”. If the applicant decides to replace “1234 A” with
a new UPN, say “5678", then the self-mark would read “IC: 123A-5678".
